A keyword search is going to favor the generalist; we have a lot more keywords than a specialist. As a generalist, I have many languages, applications and operating systems on my resume, many of which I don't know all that well. These feed the keyword searches. That's the thing; most people who have HR departments that do keyword scanning? To them, I look deeply technical and specialized. Most places like that are simply not set up to recruit or handle real technical people.
