As we all know, it does (or is made to do) some pretty dumb keyword matching. If you have "database" on your CV, you'll get pinged repeatedly for DBA roles...
Earlier this year I received an email from a well-known agency seeking "heating, ventilation and air-conditioning engineers"

I still haven't worked out which part of my CV might have met the following criteria:

- HVAC
- HVAC Design
- Maintenance
- Heat Calculation
- Load Calculation
- Heat Transfer
- Fan Design
- Thermal Calculation
- HEBA comp
- Ductwork
- Site Surveys
- Design for installation
- Air Handling Units (AHU’s)
- Cooling Towers
I did watch some cooling towers being demolished back in 1982, but I don't recall ever listing this as a "skill" anywhere
