I recently applied to the city of Loveland, Colorado as the computer support lead.  I remember being excited because it looked as if the position description was written for me specifically.  However, three or four weeks later, I got this:

Thank you for your interest in the Computer Support Technician Group Leader 112-09 position with the City of Loveland. We regret to inform you that you have not been chosen to continue in the selection process at this time.

We know that many applicants would like feedback on why their applications were screened out for further consideration. Unfortunately, due to the volume of applications we receive we are unable to respond to applicants with specific information.

Really?  Screened out before the first contact?  Sure, there might have been a lot of applicants with different qualifications, but I am fully qualified for the job.  Not partially, not almost, but fully qualified.  I could do the job in 20 hours a week.  It was cake.  It was also $20K more than I make now, and I wanted it.  I even told them I'd pay to move out there.  I will soon forget this, but right now I really want to know why I was immediately screened out.

I feel as if I've been lied to, and it hurts.  Thanks, Loveland, for outsourcing your HR tools and ignoring qualified people. I wish you the best.
