Standardized data formats would greatly reduce the amount of weeding. The candidate should have compared your wants to their skills already, you cross-check their listed skills vs your wants.

And we need to sort out needs vs wants. Job postings should include the required skills (do not submit if you don't meet them) and a separate listing for additional skills that would be desirable. Don't waste everyone's time with a guessing game where people need to decide if they are close enough to the wish list.
