    I mean, HR is being paid. They should be going through the resume and compiling the data themselves.

    Instead they require the applicants to do it for free, despite the fact the applicants are probably having to do it dozens of times trying to apply for multiple jobs.

      No reading every resume is an incredibly stupid way to spend time, even for HR workers (they are somewhat educated aka not cheap).

      It would make sense for every joblisting to use the same format and you just filling it all out once in said format and connecting to any company / job listing you’ld want to apply to. That’s basically what linkedin does to some extent. That, but without the social network bullshit, would be pretty cool.

      I’m not even a fan of HR departments and even I recognize there’s more to their job than sorting through every resume they get every day.

      I think you underestimate how many people apply for jobs and how few people are in HR lol.

      You’d make a lot of money if you were able to make a site that harvested one from the other.
