Most companies use HR software to filter out undesirable candidates, black people, etc. Paying a person to read hundreds of resumes full of lies wouldn't be cost effective. Meanwhile, the process of filling out the application itself is a hurdle that prevents the techno-illiterate, actually-illiterate, and unmotivated from applying to the jobs in the first place.

Honestly they probably only ask for resumes so that the HR software can analyze it for writing level. So many people lie in the darn things that they're basically useless.

Close to this.

When I got out of college I honestly didn't understand why people had such problems - and at the time I graduated in 2010 - at the heart of the recession. I simply shot fish in a barrel - maybe tweak the resume here or there - but autofill, tab, and being able to type fast is your friend. As shitty as my resume/grades were, I would still get interview bites fairly frequently.

Now I'm employed by one of the big-boys and that alone will make recruiter's panties wet... so no worries anymore :p

I spent 4 years in las cruces... there's no road to rage in... I mean, there's that one stop light, but its only slow because people are too polite to honk and remind someone to take the green arrow.

However, the extended rant about being personally offended by an ambiguous remark was a dead giveaway. 20k out of 30k gun deaths in the US are suicide QED no one with green hair should own a gun.

I thought it had to be considering the follow-up video especially, but either way it was pretty damn funny.
