Ridiculous! There are maybe hundreds of resumes being scanned. How could you do anything other than send a generic response? Why would you want a generic reply saying “yup, got your resume, email still works...”
Show yourself some respect and stop complaining about being rejected. You sent an email, they didn’t reply, ignore it.
Not one reply gave a good rationale...downvote all you want.
Why would you expect to hear back? How can a company reply to every person that applies for a position? If they’re interested, they’ll respond. It’s like Tinder. They got your email. Don’t get upset because one startup (that’s likely going to fail) didn’t like your resume more than other ones, or hasn’t gotten to it.
If every military contractor was as good as SpaceX there would be no problem. It’s not crony capitalism or a monopoly just because the government is your primary customer.
The military contractors (“defense contractor” is doublespeak like DoD) are actually bribing generals and congressmen while SpaceX competes on technology and price. They’re bringing the price down on space launches which is a major strategic goal of the US military. They’ve got some cool shit to put up there but a lot of it is not yet economically feasible even with their budgets.
What about Raytheon, Lockheed Martin and the other major members of the military industrial complex? Many companies get nearly all of their revenue from government contracts.
In any case, they’re getting money in exchange for services or goods rendered to the government. SpaceX can at least claim to have provided a very valuable service, for a very good price.
Compare with programs like the F-35, among many other crimes against the American tax payer.
