A knock on consequence if everybody did this:

- HR is no longer inundated with garbage resumes

- Hiring managers can actually focus on the resumes in their inbox and assume that people are genuinely interested in the role.

- The whole system works more efficiently.

From day one I thought the whole notion of AI in the hiring process (on both sides: candidates submitting AI resumes, HR filtering resumes with AI) was positively absurd. I hope more people catch on.

>> "Get in contact with current employees at the company. It is important that you send more than one email"

This just means the average employee starts getting inundated with spam resumes instead that they are ill equipped to handle.

AI in the process is absurd, but the logic of the spam arms race is inescapable.
