Because how else is the hr department going to automatically ignore your application because you didn’t use the right keywords

The trick is to have easy apply enabled but the instruction is that only applications sent by carrier pigeon are reviewed.

Our HR literally counts out a percentage and dumps it in the bin. Competitive applicants, my arse.

And then if you're not ignored and somehow pass the screening, there's the dreaded "technical interview", which is becoming a thing in many fields now after being popularised in the IT, programming and software development hiring process. Basically make grown ass adults who already have degrees take an exam with an extremely stringent time limit. No way this could lead to biases against neurodivergent people or those with physical or mental disabilities, no way at all.

I do honestly wonder if that's why my applications were ignored back in the mid 2010's. Like, right out of technical school with a bunch of licenses and then nothing... Hell, even the garbage jobs like Starbucks were ignoring me.
