I think the automated resume filtering systems are interesting. Previous stories, about how to hire people, have told how the nice people involved in hiring did the exact thing these systems do, only manually. They take a big stack of resumes and filter 95% straight into the trash, based on some arbitrary rules.
I don't like the idea of these automated systems, but I also don't see how this is any different.

I've used an automated resume filtering systems in the past. They worked quite well. I'd absolutely do it again.

It certainly did filter quite a few people straight to the trash, based mainly on an inability to fizzbuz.
