For those complaining that it's a terrible idea, and it may well be, have your ever been on the receiving end of shotgunned resumes?

What's a good solution to this?

Some hiring sites have started showing how many other jobs applicants have applied to via the same platform, and whether they were rejected for not meeting minimum qualifications.

Well that's lame af. But that doesn't really address my question.

They can start by rejecting everyone who doesn't appear to read job requirements.
