I felt that with most bigger corporations, where it was a shitload of sometimes very abstract questions, asking the same thing in different words, all that sort of stuff and then having you answer some of that same stuff on video. I guess it’s to try and see if you’re a good “culture fit” without having to actually meet you.
Then in a smaller company it was a few questions and sending your CV online. I got a call next morning inviting me to an interview, which was very much a “let’s get a feel of this guy”, a firm handshake, done and done. It felt so good after all that big corporation horseshit.
most companies dont even go that far to look at your resume. before AI started trashing resume, they had softwares to screen out keywords/accept keywords and the hiring managers never see it, because the software just trashed the resume. AI made it 100x worst.

Nothing feels more dehumanising than applying for a job in 2026 with a big company*
and getting past thier Ai filters, and they have the audacity to say people are using AI to make thier resumes for them and MASS apply.
