Perhaps companies should go back to promoting their job openings at in person events? I remember a couple years ago when I went to a job faire, it was typical for recruiters to politely refuse your printed resume and instead suggest you apply through their online portal. Now that bots/AI have made applying trivial and resulted in a deluge of applications they can't seem to properly filter, I think it's time to try a different approach.

I suggested this to a coworker at my job and he responded as if I had slapped a baby. I guess it is like telling a hammer company that a screwdriver may be the better tool in some use cases.
