Industry secret:
If you do this, they’ll find your resume and throw it out in fear that if they hire you another candidate will sue them for unfair hiring practices :) everything’s gotta be online for “fairness”

Completely not true. It’s not a secret that employees of companies can refer people they know and not get sued. No self respecting company would throw out a resume because you made an effort to make an impression.
