Is this a generic response, because this rejection made my day.

This is by far the best rejection I have gotten. I don't recall applying to this mid career position, or maybe I do... and I shouldn't have done it. It doesn't feel like a automatic response and they cite their need for a person with a "great deal of loan underwriting experience."

Thanks so much for considering the Commercial Loan Underwriter & Real Estate Administrative Coordinator position at PetroCal Associates. After careful consideration, we regret to inform you that your experience does not match our current needs. We're currently focusing on hiring someone with a great deal of loan underwriting experience who can be a financial analyst lead for our loan brokerage business.

If it's okay with you, we'd like to keep your info on file in case another position comes up in the future that would be a better fit. My sincere best wishes for your success in your job search.
