Can't apply for jobs without agreeing to privacy policy, agreeing to spam calls and emails. How do we fix this? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I've heard of people getting VOIP numbers but not sure how this works.

I tried to get an extra number to forward, but those sites ask you to agree to the same privacy violations. I'm so pissed.

What can we do to recieve phone calls for jobs without signing up for endless spam?

I have my phone set to silence unknown callers, if it’s a job and they are for some reason not emailing me then they’ll leave a message.
