So much pre-employment screening and automated filtering. Getting to the interview stage is like having your paper refereed instead of desk rejected.

Cold applications are very difficult, especially because of the sheer volume of applicants.

Unless I have a referral, it’s such a low probability exercise it’s not worth it for me.

Whenever I see “100+ candidates have applied” on LinkedIn, I just ignore the job posting.
