Are AI-Screened Applicants Doomed? Recruiters Reveal Shocking Truths and How to Outsmart the System
Last month, a friend sent me a rejection email she’d received within 90 seconds of submitting her application. Ninety seconds.
She’d spent three hours tailoring her resume, researching the company, and crafting a thoughtful cover letter.
The automated response didn’t even pretend a human had been involved.
She wasn’t surprised. Just tired.
This is the reality of job searching in 2025.
Most applications never reach human eyes. They’re filtered, scored, and rejected by algorithms designed to process hundreds of resumes in the time it takes you to brew coffee.
