What does this mean? - Boutique IB

"Thank you for your interest in (Boutique Investment Bank). We are currently evaluating resumes and will conduct our first round of phone interviews within the next week."

I was emailed this response after sending in my resume. My question is should I respond by asking "When will candidates know if they have been selected for phone interviews?" or does this sound redundant in response to his email (I would know if I am selected by them scheduling a phone interview). I want to know if I should email him back or just wait to see if he sends me an additional email.

Edit: Yes, I know it automated. Quit trolling the thread it was a simple question. I have received automated emails in the past and sometimes companies which you inquire more.

it's automated you lmao

I don't accept sacrifices and I don't make them. ... If ever the pleasure of one has to be bought by the pain of the other, there better be no trade at all. A trade by which one gains and the other loses is a fraud.

You do not ball so hard.

The answer to your question is 1) network 2) get involved 3) beef up your resume 4) repeat -happypantsmcgee WSO is not your personal search function.
