That means tailoring your resume directly to meet the recruiters needs, beliefs, and perceptions and only indirectly to those of the actual employer.
...
The most important thing here is to remember that recruiters, whether working in an internal HR group or for some outside agency, don't get evaluated on how well their recruits do their jobs, but on how long those recruits stay in their jobs.

Typically, they'll note the keywords the actual employer uses in describing the role, and repeat them in their resume search and interviews, but won't understand them in any kind of technology context.
