@cferdinandi Even if there are thousands of resumes or portiflios it's just 2-3 pages

Shouldn't take more than 2 or 3 weeks reading it

@cferdinandi I was just saying isn't this the job of recruiters? Why have they got so comfortable in using such a dehumanising procedure of evaluating people for a job

If they can't even dignify giving few minutes to people who spent years honing their expertise or skill then what use is that profession?

@impactology most recruiters are recruiting for more than one job at a time. Most recruiters then also need to contact the narrow down, subset of candidates and conduct an initial screening interview. Most recruiters need to coordinate a whole series of interviews between various folks on the hiring team and candidates. most recruiters need to coordinate with the financial and legal teams to generate offer letters and contracts.

@impactology the Internet simultaneously makes it easier to find jobs, and easier for people to apply to roles for which they are not a good fit.

The software only exists to deal with the glut of resumes from unqualified candidates that recruiters started receiving around the time that monster.com came into existence.

Recruiters do way more than just read resumes all day.

@cferdinandi

Okay, thanks for clarifying but then how do you explain something like this happening?
