Its systems like that forced me to get an expensive qualification that I don't need simply so humans will actually see my resume. I don't need the qualification, I have industry experience going back over a decade but because I don't have a magical qualification, that is recognized by the entire industry as being utterly useless, that didn't even exist when I started in the industry I had to fork out £600.
