I don’t feel safe uploading a cv to an untrusted site. It doesn’t explain what happens with the cv on first glance after it’s uploaded. Good luck

This, and it kind of bothers me that that is my first thought on the internet these days. I get enough unsolicited mail/phone calls from recruiters as it is.

I appreciate the well wishes, your suspicion completely understandable (and frankly warranted). Others in this thread have suggested a Privacy Policy, looks like that's the next thing on my todo list. But as it stands, the resume text is stored, while the document itself is not. This is so I can cache resume embeddings to try and keep my OpenAI API costs to a minimum.

  Stored for how long?

  I didn't know this about ChatGPT - brokers of user data, trading data collected for compute. As interesting as this is, there's a lil bit of an interesting public policy and computer technology for fair use of one's personal data. No expert, but might be a slippery slope long term, so highly suggest you get a checkbox in there with some sort of absolvement in liability between your app and the user's resume. Other than that, it's like all good things - 80% of it is the button click, while the last 20% is proofing the final result and correcting the model so the machine can learn. God Speed man. Love new tools.

Same here. So I just made a bullet point list of the technical things I have done in the past. I got a list of jobs I wouldn't necessarily have searched for on a job board so that's nice.

? Personally I'm comfortable uploading my resume wherever - it's my resume, it exists to advertise my skills. I'd give it freely to anyone who asks, there's nothing on there I'd consider private almost by definition.

Surely your CV is inherently public information, isn't it non-negative for you if it's shared or 'leaked'?

  Surely your CV is inherently public information Says who? I find it actually quite strange to think of not only your own, but everyone else's professional (and implicitly: social, geographic) history as "inherently public" information.

    Says you the author of the CV without attached terms limiting distribution? You who wants people to read it and want to hire you?

Pure curiosity.. what evil could come from your work history being public or falling in the "wrong hands" whatever those may be?

  Unsolicited calls and emails.

    You already sort of have that with a public profile. And you don't need to include your phone number. You basically don't get my phone number without a specific reason. I've only gotten jobs through people I've known since the 1980s but at least a capsule version on my resume is embedded in bios on countless event sites. It's hard (and undesirable) for a lot of people to keep that information hidden.
