No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

The point is they are looking for different information and putting that information into the parts humans will read makes the humans more likely to reject you.
Sometimes humans and the machine care about the same thing, but when there is a difference you don't want the humans to reject you for having information the machine needs.
Last time we were hiring my boss gave me 50 resumes to read and half an hour to get the job done. Not only is that less than a minute each, but the ones I forwarded on got 3-5 minutes (as did 1-2 rejects), if you want to be hired you need to capture my attention in a few seconds - anything that won't capture my attention needs to not be on the resume even if the machine needs it.
Sounds like your employer doesn't give you enough time to actually do the work, just barely enough to to do it "good enough."
It's probably even worse for the people you hire.
They say we are going to become worse off as population decline tightens the labor market and I am fucking here for it. Maybe when you only get 10 resumes you will be given a chance to actually read them.
The labor market isn't going to decline that much in our lifetime.
I'm reading 100 resumes because they got past the automated scan system. I interview about 5 because an interview requires a lot of investment on our part. Interviewing 100 people means we can't get anything else done. My job isn't to hire people it is get engineering work done.
I have not encountered an electronic form that would ask for information not included in my CV. What would such information be?
You can defend shitty late stage capitalism hiring practices all you want, there is still no reason to put in the information twice
Capturing your attention is completely irrelevant to the discussion of whether computers can read a normal resume when they don't ask for any additional information not found in the resume.
