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.

Definitely seems folks need to find a sweet spot whether in sales, job hunting or simply inspiring teams to foster positive relationships and hopefully as a result, more innovation and productivity. The issues you raise are long, unsolved problems however, and I wonder why.

And we see many new job poating tools floating, a few of them promising such as @Pallet_HQ but the core is not being addressed. Something that brings @keyvaluesio and salary listing, to inspire the right awareness and confidence in applicants.

I find we do need to look at a variety of processes outside our familiar ones in order to make innovative breakthroughs. A good example is in filmmaking - actors will also direct, produce, write and so on, each informing the other concept.
