It's similar to how we get little/no feedback from job interviews and applications because of a couple of outliers making giving feedback not worth the trouble

Has it always been this way or was there a time long ago where it's common to receive feedback? (I've only been working professionally for ~5 years)



IME, Not getting feedback from job interviews is mainly because 1) recruiters are incentivized for closing candidates, not cultivating brand awareness, and 2) giving actual meaningful feedback is hard, so it seems worthless to give a canned response.
