I get this every time I log in. I actually applied. They said thank you, well keep you name on file...  I have a fairly hot resume, it actually blowes their requierments out of the watter, so my guess is that like so many other companies they are not really ready to take on an addition cash burden at this time. Or they are pulling the "Your over qualified thing with me", but even then I can not belive they would re recruting for 4 months in this market without being able to fill a position.
