Re:Ask HN: Why are there still recruiters? on Wednesday January 31, 2018 @04:56PM (#16277901)
I agree with the values you mention they are "supposed" to provide. But in reality Filtering, I dont think they do it correctly. At least in Technology.

See technology nowadays it's a lot about buzzwords, and usually recruiters just look for keywords inside resumes. If you dont have one of those keywords, you're off the hook.

Technology hiring, could have another layer of analysis. For example every developer knows that if you've been doing mysql, and php, and web development. You probably can manage a CMS like Drupal or Wordpress. A recruiter would dismiss you for not having one of those in your resume.

Maybe this is good. Maybe not, my point is, job hiring is not only plain resume reading, and they usually dont go beyond that.
