You are right, it is better than the "no way" message. I would take it as they are reviewing your app and if they want to interview they will call you.

I know that playing the waiting game is not easy. Continue to apply at other places. Good luck to you.

It is a simple, we got your app.....don't contact us, we'll contact you.

I have begun to really dispise the adoption of "computerized applications", it takes the human out of human resources.

Just depends on the company. Often that one is automatically generated and sent by the computer to eveybody who applies to that place.

Some places will never send you another notification of any kind. Some will change your status and say "you are being considered", or say "no longer being considered".

We were fortunate to have a number of excellent candidates apply for this position. While you have many fine skills and work experiences, after careful evaluation, we have decided to continue our search ...

Which means "while you have 12 years nursing experience, that's not good enough. We will keep looking. " ****
