with 800application, hes probably only using the same CV/RESUME over and over, to the point companies will automatically ignore it with thier software. gotta change up his resume, or hes like one of those wierd cherry pickers i encountered on reddit about applying jobs, they applied to same company multiple times over different period of time.

He's a software engineer, I'd bet on him automating it in a way that it's been flagged by commonly used recruting tools and is auto-rejected.

Some of those tools also use LLM now, and they're regularly found to be flawed and turning away wanted applicants.

You don't even need an LLM to autoreject someone that lists "Vibecoding" on his resume.

I am vibecoding, but that's because I am not a coder or developer but do it for fun from time to time without a real clue.

probably that too, i wonder if its also reapplying to the same job, or same company over and over again, considering he only wants a niche job which a mistake on his part.
