Before this round, I received a job offer for every application.

I don't need a job right now, but I'm applying to jobs because I see the writing on the wall.

Despite very strong, and publicly verifiable, bonafides, I didn't even get a response from a number of very good (but very large) companies. The smaller and more exclusive companies are responding at a much higher rate, strangely.

So if I'm making it past the harder resume screens, I have to assume that for larger companies, they're just completely failing to read my resume.
