None of them showed up to the initial screening call. That's just crazy. Probably those were for collecting data to analyze what makes a CV pass. Mass apply everywhere, combine the results, and analyze the results manually or using LLMs. Selling these data can be profitable

It's also possible that they got a job elsewhere, and didn't follow up.
