It all seems soooo easy.
Type a little, and suddenly your resume is available to thousands of employers. It's the Yeshiva Bochur's dream- your parents (or Kallah) demand you find immediate employment - so you take 5 minutes to post your resume to the internet, and *BAM* you can tell them to stop nagging, because, hey, you're trying. If Gd wants it to be, it'll happen.
It's a tough market. Everyone's looking, and nobody's hiring. It's so easy to post on the internet that everybody is trying it. Employers are being flooded. What's worse, the more they rely on search engines to choose which potential recruits get interviews, the harder it is for possible employees to differentiate themselves in meaningful ways to the recruiter. It all comes down to fooling the computer. Well maybe that's just the wave of the future.
