Why did Barnes & Noble reject me when I applied online?

I was looking for a new job, so I sent my resume to Barnes & Noble, applying for bookseller. That's an entry level job, you don't need to have any sort of experience or qualifications.

On my resume I listed the two previous jobs I had, the last one being very customer service oriented, the fact that I'm a book lover, and some volunteer experience. It didn't have any spelling errors, and I had a friend proof read it.

They sent me an email saying "after reading your resume we decided not to pursue you" - what?!

I was just wondering how that could happen? My availability was good too… What are some reasons they could reject me?
Added (1). It's true that if someone else has experience working with books, or has a degree, they would probably take them over me. It's just that in the job description it said they accept people over the age of 16, so I thought it was a teenager kind of job. :(

I'm an Australian resident and I'm trying to buy something off of Barnes & Noble but I'm confused about what to enter where it says 'ZIP / POSTAL CODE' as it says that the length of the code is 07 and it is 'All numerical, no spaces or dashes'.

Can't download an Ebook from Barnes and Noble?!

Several weeks ago, I pre-ordered an ebook on Barnes and Noble website. It was released today, and I can see it in my library in "My Nook" section of the website. But I can't see a way to either get it on my nook directly, or to somehow download it to my computer and move it to nook via usb. The only options it's giving me are to review it, move it to archive or delete it, and I haven't even read it yet. Someone please help!

p.s. I have Nook Simple Touch

Nook Simple Touch Vs Kindle Touch?

I am a bookworm. I love books but i felt that it was time for me to invest in an eBook reader for various reasons. I am a college student and i have a really long commute. I want a ink eReader like the nook simple touch or the kindle touch because looking at a LCD screen for too long gives me a headache. I don't really care for browsing or apps, i just want to read without any distractions and glare. I need an eReader with a good battery life because of my long commute. My two choices are the nook simple touch and the kindle touch. But i want to know which eReader i will benefit most from. And if you have any of these can you tell me what you enjoy most about it or what problems you've had with it. If you have another option please feel free to mention them too.

Thank you in advance.

How long does it take a job to get back to have you emailed them a job application?

Last Monday/Tuesday I applied for a job at Barnes & Noble and I was wondering how long it takes for them or any job in general to answer back. I've applied for Target and other places in the past and even if they declined me they answered back within 5 days and I was wondering why Barnes & Noble is taking a while.
