From MIT:
"We're so glad we had the opportunity to read your application materials. However, having completed the first phase of our job search, the search committee has made the difficult decision not to go further with your application. This decision reflects our assessment of current departmental needs rather than any negative judgment on your academic record or qualifications, which are impressive. Thank you for your application. I look forward to seeing more of your research in the future."
As long as someone's gonna tell you to scram, they can at least be nice about it. Well done, Rae Langton.

It's so nice that it almost sounds like you got the job. Or at least a date.

You're right - for a form letter that is pretty nice. I got the exact same one yesterday.
