NO PHONE CALLS

I love how the one the one and only thing that remains consistent among almost all online job postings is the special instruction of "NO PHONE CALLS!"

It's like, damn, what the hell did you do 10 years ago? Why do you even have a telephone at all? Ease up.

And another was like "While yes, you can send your application through your old dingy mailbox, that could take 3 years, while if you apply through our nifty new online system, we get it instantaneously!!!"

And then they go on to say "Due to the large volume of e-mails we receive, [please forgive us if we ignore you completely, even after granting you a possible interview. In fact, even if you get an interview and come meet and talk to us, there is still no guarantee we'll even call you. You might get a nice template letter, but you'll have to wait and see."] Ho hum.
