I love how job sites, career counselors, etc constantly tell you to put your phone number in your resume. When you do, suddenly you start getting inundated with spam / scam calls. In the modern tech job market, half of the listed jobs are just farming resumes to scrape and sell to companies. As soon as you hit the job market, the spam starts rolling in. It gets to where you don't answer your phone because you already know it is a gift card scam, or similar. So, it works against your job hunt.

It's almost like you need a burner phone in order to apply for a job
