Company names + roles. Once they're good enough. What did they do there.

Sadly wouldn't make it through unless I've got a reference. This is because I got good budgets to hire. If i didn't have a good budget. I'd have to spend more time unearthing hidden gems. And mind you I've skimmed every single of the 500-600 profiles we got for 7 roles. And when you're hiring for brand, social, brand name matters because that's inherently linked to kitna bada budget handle Kiya and kya bada ukhada hai.
ATS to filter out resumes. If there's a tie then there are other factors. After that, they might read manually. If you're a fresher, the tie breaker could be your college's brand or the internship(s) you've done.
I hire recommended people. Screening resume i for entry roles after that doesn’t matter

Recommendation as in referrals?
Throw all of them from the top floor (26th), then go and pick whatever is left on the ground floor.
