I’m going to do the opposite. I’m going to get the AI to generate my resume and cover letter. If an AI is going to sort out which resumes are ‘good’ ones, I figure the ones written by an AI are going to be preferred.
That logic is sound, and I certainly can’t fault it, but personally, I refuse to use the problem to solve / deal with the problem. Call me stubborn (everyone else does lol), but I will not buy a solution from the same industry that created the problem. At most, I’ll let the “AI” fill out the unemployment forms for me lol.
You’d run into a problem pretty quick once you get to the interview stage and they ask about your experience setting up cloud servers on the ISS or serving as an enforcer for the Dali Lama.
I had AI take a stab at revising my resume and it invented all kinds of things that sounded good but I could never back up or bullshit my way through.
I tried using ChatGPT to distill my LinkedIn profile down to a summary paragraph for a marketing resume (what gets included with a RFQ response when a design or engineering form is pursuing a project) and everything it spat out was worse than what I had already written and wasn’t happy with. Ultimately I lifted a phrase or two from ChatGPT’s output, but it didn’t do much to save me time or improve the quality of my copy.
I had the same issue. I couldn’t get it to tailor anything to a job. It either just repeated the job requirements without looking at my resume or just spat our resume reformatted. This is the only thing I want Gen-AI to do and it doesn’t do it

Just feed the job posting straight into the resume generating AI. It’s bound to be a good match.

I’m not saying I wouldn’t proofread it.

If you write one half of the GAN to make resumes which always pass their AI screening, that’s proof you should be given whatever ML job they have.
Then train an AI on those and do it again. To distill it to its absolute pure AIssense.
