Do you know something about the ins and outs of Human Resources?

I haven’t applied for a job in a long time, but it seems that now HR professionals have stopped replying to applicants with updates about the status of openings.

I know sometime in the past 10 years they stopped sending letters telling individuals they were denied a position.

Now it seems they have stopped replying to even questions about whether a position is still vacant or has been filled.

If you know something about HR, can you explain please?
