Cute but I mean... You just copy paste it into postman and fill in the blanks. It doesn't really show anything, it's just novel.
I'm not gonna be as cynical as the other people on here saying that it's because they just want to have a machine/AI process your application. But at the same time I'm gonna be even more cynical, because if they think that machines/AI aren't already processing your PDF resumes, then you're crazy lol
You'd be surprised at how many imbeciles a simple step like this will weed out. Lotta unqualified people applying to everything
I'd pass so hard. Thank goodness the only "interviews" I've ever needed in 30 years have been the polar opposite of this kind of cringe.
