    Someone should build a little AI app that scrapes a job listing, then takes a resume and rewrites it in subtle ways to perfectly match the job description.

    Let your AI duke it out with their AI.

      When I got out of the military, my outprocessing included a briefing about how to get interviews with federal organizations. One thing they taught us was that you can copy the job description, paste it into your resume, and set the font to white. The automated systems at USA Jobs would register a match to the job description and rate you as a better candidate and the human screeners were so overworked that they would just go with what the computer says without checking.

          Some places, yeah. But some of the screening tools have grown more sophisticated now that the information about copying and pasting the listing has made its way to the public.

      Do you really want to work for a company that allows their HR department to abuse AI as a tool?

        Yes? They’ve got a million bazillion applicants too; this is a huge market failure all around.

        Explain how anyone has a choice, especially in the United States
