I decided to expand my job search and use the VA resources given to me to speak with some guy I think was a career counselor.

90% of the talk was about AI. Prepping my resume with AI so the AI reading it can do better and he told me how to act when being interviewed by AI.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN AI IS DOING INTERVIEWS NOW?! I look into it and fucking Burger King of all places is now using AI to interview people!

I also applied to another fucking place today after speaking with that guy after work because I hate myself, I guess and this fucking application for an IT Support Position took me an hour an a half to do because it included another fucking personality test and not one but THREE MOTHERFUCKING VISUAL NOVEL TYPE OF THINGS OF “what would you do in this scenario?”

ARE YOU FUCKING ME!? HOLY SHIT, HOW DID WE LET IT GET THIS BAD?!

End my suffering, please. This cannot be where our country has gone.

    100%. I was seeing the “thinking” delay too, and maybe on the first question asking it was forgivable, but every single thing I asked, we just sat there looking at each other for 2 to 5 seconds before he starts rattling off a perfectly eloquent (but sometimes wrong) answer. A human responds with clarifying questions “Do you mean in the situation of X or Y?” or “umms” or “ahhs” while they form the thought. Maybe the close their eyes to visualize to think through their answer. This guys was staring right at the screen/camera not even blinking in silence for that time.
