My boomer dad didnt know

Was visiting yesterday with my boomer dad. He's been trying to hire a delivery driver recently and was complaining about how he only gets resumes that all look/sound the same and he can't put a name to the face. He was excited because one woman actually came in, handed him a resume and shook his hand. He's determined to hire her. I had to explain to him that most businesses not only don't care if you walk in, they actively don't want you to. It's all about “the algorithm”. He couldn't wrap his head around it.
