This hurts everyone, and hurts employees and small businesses most. A big company has far more resources to deal with spam applications.

yea, no.

if you're a small business and are getting an "overwhelming" number of underqualified apps, then you're probably trying to find a masters degree holder to take an associates degree position. regardless, sorting through apps/resumes is part of the process of running a business. the entire world isn't obliged to make your job easier. fuck that. i have no sympathy whatsoever
