So I applied for a job, got the rejection email… and then got a phone call explaining why, plus an invite to connect on LinkedIn.

I’m over here feeling like a fish out of water — no one has ever personally called me after a rejection.

Should I call back or just let it go?

What y’all think?

Be VERY careful. Normally companies do not tell you why you did not get the role and will only either send out a rejection letter or give you a call to let you know they decided to pursue other more qualified candidates but never heard of them doing both and then inviting you to connect with them on LinkedIn.
