Same thing as last time this was posted; If a resume has Microsoft, LI, Zillow, and Instagram as the positions listed, that person is getting an invite. When 100s of people are applying, hiring managers don't have time to read every last bullet, but will quickly sort through by looking at stuff like that. It's really not a surprise. The more intense scrutinising comes during the actual interview anyways (as most of the people here know, I guess).

This highlights my number one frustration with applying for associate level software engineer roles. Recruiters see “IT Engineer” as my previous job title and don’t even bother looking at the day to day tasks I was performing to see if they’re applicable.

Everything is automated at this point. I'm a one of the big tech companies and a recently received a message from a recruiter that my [completely unrelate to product] experience at [current company] made me a great candidate to build [product] at [new company].

What made it amazing was that going back two positions in my experience would show several years architecting, leading engineering, and eventually selling a company that built [product].
