I would love to get a little more context behind this anecdote, because I have to admit it sounds almost a little too good / bad to be true. While I have fairly limited experience with BigCo hiring, my poor resume has made it through at least a couple HR filters without any attempt on my part to do any keyword matching. Even in the cases where HR is literally grepping the resume for certain target words, the requirements themselves aren't conjured out of thin air. Therefore, I feel some of the blame is shared by the department doing the hiring. After all, they know a filter is being applied by a team without domain knowledge and should tailor it accordingly.
