I worked at 7 small companies total. All CVs are read. There may be some screening if recruitment agencies are used. Which is sad.

Aside: if using an agency you might need a CV for them and then when you talk about the job switch to the role-facing CV. I got burned by this in the past presenting a microsoft heavy story to a non microsoft using company they didn’t want to talk.
