I have been lucky enough to have not encountered automated resume scanning nonsense, or maybe I got past the HR-bots and didn't know? Anyways, I always felt that what helped me get jobs was my personal projects and extracurricular activities.

I feel it shows a certain level of interest and knowledge that can set you apart from other recent grads.
