Without a doubt but you can’t filter what isn’t there. The best candidates will continue to shun the effort required to please these systems if a better option is provided to them. That better option is the ability to be wanted by multiple employers. Being great removes the need to apply in most cases because when you are great they will find you.

It shouldn’t scare them but it should open their mind to the fact that if it becomes incredibly easy to find the jobs then it will become much more imperative to differentiate yourself when you do apply. Clients will have more applications and will spend less and less time actually interacting with candidates personally to create a shortlist.

Think Different will be very important. Character, education and self-knowledge and the ability to present that will be (and already is) of the utmost importance.
