- michaelt 2y agoI mean, presumably it's a "bot war" because there are multiple competing parties, all using automation: * Direct recruiters using automated tools to post job ads, filter resumes and respond to applicants. * Third-party recruiters using automated tools to scrape job boards for openings and create duplicates * New entrant job boards scraping popular job boards, to create simulated activity. * Identity thieves, automatically duplicating legitimate ads to gather PII * Applicants using LLMs to fill out application forms and write cover letters.
