The HR industry is loaded to the top with incompetent people judging other people. Many resume screeners either use automated screening software, or know nothing about the trades in the resumes they are screening. So they reject or accept based purely on trivality and surface appearances. In my experience HR people do not even read resumes, they depend on what software tells them. Which is why I get inappropriate inquiries for nurse jobs and shipping clerk jobs.
Foreign candidates routinely lie on the resumes, making things even worse.
I've applied for tech jobs where there were 1800 other candidates, the major of them shotgunning resumes out. This of course overloaded the screeners, on top of the screener incompetence.
But HR is merely one of many areas where the work is complete bullshit and the people are useless consumers and not true producers.
Maybe history is loaded with examples of cycles of civlizations that rose to a peak, then fell from their bloated unsustainable level back to base levels. I think that the elite are well aware of this and are trying to hurry the next collapse so that they can seize power over the rubble - but still live like kings.
