Had a great round of interviews at Accenture including speaking with their HR person multiple times. No issues during the process had great rapport with all the interviewers. I followed up with the HR contact on next steps, and received an automated email response that they will not be moving forward. WTF? I can get over not getting a job but the lack of decency from the HR contact not to call me is uncalled for.

First, it may went great from your point of view, but it doesn’t seem your interviewer agree with that sentiment. Or maybe they found someone greater.

Second, most if not all companies, communicate rejection via email. It has nothing to do with your rapport with interviewers. You don’t get second place prize when it comes to interviews. It’s not like they will share any specific feedback. So it’s really just a one way communication

A lot of jobs don’t even email back that you didn’t get a job. What personalized process were you looking for?

Also company context is important. We have over 700k people and interviews constantly. It simply isn’t feasible to have a non automated process. If you don’t want to be treated like a number then apply to a company with a significantly smaller headcount.

This is standard stuff. Recruiters never call you to say you were rejected. They are trying to avoid exposure to lawsuits by discussing why you were rejected.
