I can understand ATS is dehumanizing, but to frame it like in the article does little to solve the problem. The article does not even highlight the actual problem as to why companies have such automated processes. Number of applicants per job have increased manifold in recent years. No matter how many recruiters you hire, they can at max look at ~200 (20-30 per hour) resumes per day (assuming they don't work on anything else). On many entry level roles on LinkedIn, the number of applicants are more than 10,000. You need an automated system somehow. There is also a tendency in this demographic to compare against their peers and wanting the same jobs, perks, etc. while they may or may not want to make an effort towards it. Not sure if that is possible in the short run.
