AI broke hiring: keyword-based ATS rejects top candidates before humans look
EXM7777 · x · 2026-09-11
Quoting the launch of Elly, the first "AI Recruiter as a Service," the author argues candidates now mass-apply with AI while recruiters mass-deny with AI, and keyword-filtering ATS systems drop the best resumes before any human sees them. His fix: software handles repetitive work (sourcing, screening, scheduling) while experienced recruiters keep the judgment calls — who truly fits and who's worth a stretch offer. "The process is the bottleneck, not your people."
