Let me tell you an example right now. I saw a workday role that Linkedin suggested that I should apply. I clicked apply on Linkedin which redirected me to the workday site.

The workday site has an Apply with Linkedin button - which I clicked, I mean, I had already wanted to do that before.

Now workday asked me to create an account in their site (wtf?!) not only that but they didn't accept a silly password (why do I need a strong password for a throw away account and why do I need a throw away account for your site?!)

Very similar patterns with other companies... In the end I just gave up, I don't want it badly enough to be tortured in creating accounts and filling details on every company I ought to find interesting / apply when I am already very happy at my job.

If it was friction free, directly from Linkedin with a recruiter calling me to talk about the role, maybe it could lead to something?

I also am not interested in having an up-to-date CV or tailor CV to roles. I already have my Linkedin account and do not look for jobs very often.

And please, no code challenges as well. I do not have the patience to study algo101 to do some tests under 2h in your buggy web UI that doesn't allow me to troublehsoot a problem how I would in my work environment. Amazon keeps directly contacting me saying how interested a particular manager is in my work and how I would be a great fit but it is impossible to talk with a person without first showing them I can pass their buggy UI 101 algo tests under a different environment from my day to day.
