I haven’t seen this approach in a long time:

No online or email applications. Call (XXX) XXX-XXXX.

That line is from a sales ad I read this morning. I love it. Start with the phone screen and move on from there. You notice that a phone call means they are not relying upon the resume as the first filter.

I have to confess the ad does describe an entry-level position, but kudos to the hiring company for taking a screen-based approach to sourcing.
