    Just some advice for job seekers: don’t create your resume by running the job description through AI.

    I’m hearing from hiring managers in my company that bunches of resumes all have the exact same blocks of text, so clearly these AI chat bots all spit out nearly the same responses.

    All of those resumes are just getting tossed into the Rejected pile. They can’t be trusted as accurate documents.

      @VeeRat And the reliance on others for free in a general sense, and on vast amounts of free online material and streaming services, minds atrophy into a near zombie state.

        @VeeRat And what about all those resume platforms that are scanning applications and are rejecting people if their resume doesn't match the job description? I really hate such advice because every company works differently and whatever you are doing is wrong.

          @VeeRat I’ve read 40 resumes in the last 4 months for my sr eng role ( I’m the staff eng ) and a good many of them were 2000 words , many just ai slop generated , and you know what that’s like ?

          That 80,000 words of reading the great gatsby twice as though it were written by an uncharismatic bore who just spits drivel

          So I concur , DONT use ai to write your resume please

            @VeeRat the irony of this is the UK government Department of Work and Pensions (allegedly to help people find jobs, actual purpose punish and humiliate them) uses job applications as an example of AI use...

            I also bin any AI applications. And I work for the Guvmint...

              @mschfr @VeeRat yeah, the primary sort only lets those through, so perhaps adjust the primary filter?

                Sadly, neither does being clear and consistent.
