I paste the job advert into my CV font size 0.001 in white then pdf it so the ingest system auto ticks all the screening requirements

You're the kind of person who's application I bin as soon as it lands in my lap.

Job interviews are a two way deal, so thank you for doing your job

How do you feel about CVs with spelling mistakes?

One or two accidental ones no issue. If they are all over the place and it seem like you hadn't even care to use a spell check then it will work against you.

And, for example's sake, would using "who's" instead of "whose" count as an accidental one or as a lack of care?

As I said, that depends on the rest of your text.
