The problem is that resumes are extremely hard for a computer to parse. If you’re dealing with potentially thousands of applicants, you need to be able to weed out people who don’t meet the minimum requirements or else you’d be spending weeks reading resumes.
thats why the ATS/AI to automatically sift out keywords, wether or not its accurate. and likely automatically deny a number of people randomly til they get like 10 or a 100 applicants.
I’m aware of that and don’t care, that’s the problem of whomever is poorly and impersonally doing hiring.
If they don’t want thousands of applicants, there are tons of recruitment strategies that avoid that problem, like job fairs, employee referral bonuses, direct recruitment, and working with agencies for placements, to name only four off the top of my head.
If they want to send their ad to the wolves, they won’t get good results, but they will get a lot of them. They are also probably an exceptionally shit place to work because they can’t even recruit talent because they are “suffering from abundance” without resorting to screening out people who can’t do data entry or have better things to do than jumping through hoops.
Yeah cool. Good for them. Easily fixed problem, but everyone wants unicorn workers, so they don’t need any training, and that requires casting a very wide net and screening out the catch they don’t want.

Fuck ‘em.
they probably spend less money just spam posting thier listings online rather than to pay HR employee to do inperson interviews/or communications.
