This is assuming the OP actually gets an interview. With so many other qualified applicants, without the experience it isn't reasonable to expect to be screened by HR.

You were probably notified because the server picked up on buzz words in your resume. I'll receive notifications for jobs outside my field or above my qualifications. I still get a lot of email for computer coding because my most recent experience is in Code Enforcement (as in building and fire inspections)
