Oh, perfect, I needed a way for recruiters to speed up the rate at which they bombard me with mismatched job postings ("I saw your 6 years of Java/Javascript experience and found a Senior COBOL Developer position that I think is a perfect fit!").


I don't understand your point. It's quite the opposite

- You can automate posting to multiple job boards

- Move easily the data between systems

- Have dead simple filter for incompetent people e.g. https://github.com/lukasz-madon/hackers-job-apply

- No more scrapers

- Build data aggregators to find a perfect fit

et cettera


Once a company has received a resume from a recruiter, they can't make a direct offer to the candidate for some number of months without fear of getting sued. You're not taking into account the strong financial incentive recruiters have to send out resume spam.
