Vinish, why do you think people with many years in IT and related fields do not do their research prior to entering into any relationship? To have the resource of the Web at our fingertips and not use it to look at products, demos, bios, about pages and so on seems very strange.

Many reasons: - lack of confidence in hiring managers' acumen bec of stupid ATS in many orgs - resume is seen as first interface tool than a strategic selling tool - personalizing is an investment and template driven JDs are a turn-off that dilute the applicants' motivation

Still, it is up to the applicants to sell better, more strategically, as each resume is a sales pitch.
