  There is something up with your hiring system. I shared this post with a friend who applied, and they got an instant rejection. This is a data engineer with 4+ years experience in your stack and a degree in nuclear engineering to boot. Maybe not an ultimate hire but clearly not someone you should be auto-rejecting.

    You need to get in touch with them personally. I feel all hiring happens in circles.

    What was their citizenship? My guess is there are security clearances involved.

    Thank you for flagging this, that definitely shouldn't be happening. Possibly we have an over-zealous spam filter. If you and your friend are open to it, please email me at pca@[company].com and I will personally look into it.

      This is a classic example of why generic ATS filters and keyword-based AI fail both candidates and EMs. When the screening process is a black box, you lose high-signal candidates before a human even sees their CV. I'm building Taknut (https://taknut.com https://taknut.com) specifically to solve this for Engineering Managers. Instead of auto-rejecting, it uses a framework to generate interview guides rooted in the candidate's actual projects. It identifies specific technical proof points (like that nuclear engineering degree + specific stack experience) to help the EM ask deep questions rather than relying on a "Pass/Fail" bot. If you're tired of "over-zealous filters" killing your pipeline, it might be worth a look to bring the human evaluation back into focus without losing time.

          I don't think that product solves this problem. You need to get 3k applications, many spam down to 10-20 or so you want to do round 1 with.
