Recruitment specialists on LinkedIn are complaining about people who apply for positions when they don’t meet all the criteria.

I realize that it’s a major task for them to review hundreds of resumes but, I want to ask if they’ve actually ever looked at the job description that they’ve posted.

It’s very sad really. The JDs posted are all-encompassing. No one candidate can ever be a perfect match for them. I don’t know if it’s deliberate; either they want to weed out the less qualified people or they just want overqualified people because they think they can get away with it in today’s job market.
