- madeofpalk 2y agoThe twist on “I used AI” to this though is that everyone comes out looking the same. They all have the same resume format, made by the same tool, stuffed with the same keywords.
- bravetraveler 2y agoDoesn't seem to function all that differently from 'higher education'.
- mathgeek 2y agoFair for the ones who don’t put in any effort, but I don’t buy this generalization for the folks who are real people in the middle between “completely unqualified” and “telling the truth about their experience”.
- roguecoder 2y agoAny effective screening strategy is going to catch the liars who do it only a little with some probability. Not least because being willing to be dishonest during an interview is a strong signal the candidate will be dishonest while they are employed as well, and companies want very much to not hire those people.
- mathgeek 2y agoFair, but that’s different from everyone who uses AI ending up with the same keywords and content on their application (see GPP)
