The number of times I got a word doc with the job description in it is ridiculous as well. Yes, I am judging you if you do that.

A PDF is also editable, sure, but at least everyone can open the goddamn thing without any problems.

    Then stop using automated software that excludes candidates if the entirety of the job description isn't embedded in the resume. You're not special. You're just another job. And 90%+ of companies use dumb filtering so people have to adapt or get used to 2k+ applications per interview.

    I think you misinterpreted what I meant. It was written from the perspective of a person who gets job offers in word files, mostly on LinkedIn. Like, just write it out in your message. I'm not opening files random people send me via any platform, much less LinkedIn, get real.
