Big 4 Firms Are Too Snobbish

I had applied online for a senior associate job with one of the big 4s back in May.  I haven't heard anything from them, as if I had thrown my application in a black hole.  I have been licensed as a CPA for several years now and I think I more than qualify to be a senior associate.  Either this big 4 form is snobbish or the firm is so dysfunctional that its hiring system is incapable of observing even the basic etiquette of recruiting.   By the way, its online job application site really sucks big times and is clumsy.  That website belongs with the 90s when Netscape dominated the internet search technology. I can't believe how a big 4 firm is so not up-to-date with technology. How does it audit clients that have 21 century accounting systems and IT technology is beyond me.....
