You've never hired anyone have ya. So you'd pass up a PhD in favor of a random just because he didn't make it the random 50.
So again we're back to " just handle it" you people don't seem to realize there are thousands of people around the world who spend their entire life coming up with different ways to "handle it" and you think your little five minute thought is just so profound that no one has ever considered it.
... I'm sorry if you've spent your entire life on this, but this is bizarrely hostile. Countless people have spent countless hours hiring candidates without AI. This isn't some genius-level solution to an unsolved problem, this is just an attempt to downsize HR departments.
The company doesn't suffer some material loss if they miss out on hiring a marginally better candidate, and it's not like these AI solutions have been around long enough to prove that they can even find the "best" candidates. Especially when they're certainly filtering out qualified professionals who don't want to justify themselves to a glorified chatbot.
