18. I think it's the young and inexperienced HR managers myself
I was actually hired to do part-time office cleaning by a young woman who acted like she was offering me a civil service job. They had to do all that resume, cover letter, 3 years of references, etc. so therefore they think everyone, including the janitors should. My dad back in the early 80s retired from the military and couldn't land a job anywhere in his career field as back then employers did not consider military training the equivalent of a college degree.

And there's also these low-rent employers who are feeling real important about themselves right now. Three years ago they were hiring illegal workers and/or felons because no one else would apply but now they have hundreds of individuals with college degrees wanting (begging) to work for a crummy $8 an hour job.
