Glad I'm not the only one. I tracked the uptick in interview offers using this method, and it was nearly 4x more. Only one recruiter seemed to notice, and gave me a dressing for it. In my eyes, play stupid games, win stupid prizes (me).

Noticed this increase in response with this method as well, while I was applying a couple years ago.

Seemed to work really well specifically with city government jobs (New York), based on the response/application ratio. I'm guessing it may have to do with their antiquated systems.
