I don’t know who needs to hear this but if I just uploaded my fancy, clean and readable one-page resume, do not ask me to fill out forms the next page so that the HR robot can tell what’s going on.
You already know what’s going on. You’re hiring and I’m applying. There’s a .pdf upload for a reason.
It’s exhausting, inexplicable and honestly quite disrespectful. It’s 2021, robots dance and imitate our voices. But they can’t correctly parse a text file? C’mon now.
