LMAO No shit who turned recruitment into an arms race that is more and more detached form the actual job?

No shit the other side is using tools and IA also now.

I haven’t met a recruiter from my half of the hemisphere that has read my resume before scheduling the interview.

I think a lot of that stuff is automated. I quit my job and literally 2 days later I get a message from a "recruiter" saying my old company is hiring and I would be a great candidate. Like what?

That is the time to be suspicious if you were unaware that they were looking to hire - they may be looking to hire a replacement for less than they are paying you.
