I usually hear “resources” used in the abstract, which was grating the first time, but I’ve gotten over.

Are you hearing that literally? Would you share an example sentence?

Very literally.

"We'll get a new front-end resource soon". "We're opening two more backfills for backend resources".

"We need a front-end resource to unblock this ticket".

I have a interview on Monday which I will decline. Literally copy pasting from their meeting invite - "Request to panel-Please Take Resource Snapshot along with Any ID Proof and share the Feedback along with IRF post completion of interview."

It's gross.

What’s a resource snapshot? A weird way of saying ‘your impression of the applicant’?

"Resource Snapshot along with Any ID Proof" - It means a screenshot of the interviewee and their ID proof together.

It's a virtual interview invite. They usually ask the interviewees to hold up their ID proof, then take screenshots, before starting the interview.

"We need to move two more resources onto this project in order to meet our deadlines." I hear stuff like this all the time.
