Great way to filter for people who actually want to work there and aren’t just shotgunning resumes though.

- idontpost 4y agoDo you think the people who play the ATS game are doing it because they don't want to work at the place they're applying to? That's a pretty specious conclusion.
- burnished 4y agoNo, it means they want to work but definitionally when you are sending out ad many applications as you can you stop caring about the individual qualities of a company - that comes later, when it becomes relevant.
- AlotOfReading 4y agoAs far as I can tell, the company in question (Claypot) has <10 employees. How many people do you think have even heard of them, let alone want to specifically work for them? Approximately all of their applicants are going to fall into the other bucket.
- burnished 4y agoThis chain is about "people who play the ats game" specifically, not claypot.
- speeder 4y agoI tried this in the past, it never worked. Resume spam is waaay better. That said it still is bad. In my whole life I got to technical interview stage only 8 times, and 2 of these were referrals...
- pc86 4y agoEvery time I've tailored a resume to a job I've at least gotten an initial screen. Tons of resume spam that resulted in silence though. Everyone's experience is different but on average, tailoring has better results than spam.
