There is something fundamentally broken about this entire user journey and industry. There are lots of jobs to fill. But hiring managers don't find people reading through resumes submitted in a form. People don't get jobs by submitting resumes into a form.

The opportunities happen from talking on the phone, meeting someone for coffee. I feel like this entire resume submission industry should just be deleted.

3 out of 3 jobs that I've had after college have been from submitting resumes into a form... It's not perfect but it can work

agreed. And guess what? I was able to get a job without a network, right out of college in 2015!

My last search was in late 2022 and I got a job with my (great) employer via an online form as well.
