After more than a year of applying to around 25 positions at different experience levels, and with almost 20 years of experience in software engineering, I never even get to the point of talking to someone, despite being on site.

The initial CV screening seems to be exclusively keyword based with complete disregard of actual demonstrable experience.

The application will either be automatically rejected within 24 hours, or will remain in under review forever.

I simply do not believe, under any circumstance, that my CV is not even worth to reach the point where you can talk to a computer.
