Every time I get asked to look at resumes, we get loads of ghost applicants. In the first days when the job listing is fresh, floods of resumes with identical formatting, all over-qualified, with similar sounding projects that read like buzzword ad-libs. Of course, they never call back.

Seems like a natural reaction to ghost jobs. Post ghost applications in order to "sample the market" to find out which jobs might be real.
