It won't be rejected. Your resume will be meticulously placed into a human review queue pending the allocation of someone to look at the contents. Meanwhile the position will be filled, and so serving no purpose the review queue will be emptied.
Oddly enough, being rejected by process versus being rejected by a person doesn't actually make me feel any better about the coming future

It's probably not going to be an auto-rejection, it's just going to sit in a queue that looks like this

Yeah, I know

My point is that this is effectively an auto rejection
