The truth about AI hiring tools

There is literally a fucking war about to pop there is no way this can continue

What is the Colorado law

What wasn’t mentioned is that it can also lead to racial bias. Article

Yeah this is exactly why job hunting feels like shouting into the void. HR turned everything into vibes and algorithms instead of “can this person actually do the job.”

People aren’t lazy or entitled. The system is just cooked and TikToks like this make it way too obvious 💀

She literally gave up nothing on what to do about it, how they track across submissions or anything. A single useful piece of info from an insider would have been how to make sure each new resume submit doesnt get correlated with the 330 day record.

The main question becomes: how are they keeping track of a resume?

Several methods can be used which have totally different solutions:

Are they keeping a footprint (hash) of the document? In that case, just changing one word would reset the evaluation

Are they keeping the PII? In that case, asking for deletion of the data (in EU) from the vendor, or slightly changing the PII (sorry, my name can be written both ways)

Are they creating an external unique ID, like for example the linkedIn profile associated with the applicant, email, etc.? Then maybe a proxy to these information my [email protected]

Or others?

Yes, all of it would look weird to a human, but you passed the screening at least

Great, now I have to make up fake names for my resumes too

so how many typos do I have to mve around all over my resume?

I had the opposite problem. Was recently looking for a job and kept getting offers for positions i was EXTREMELY under qualified for and being told my shitty resume put me as a top candidate.

My friend suggested the idea to copy and paste the job qualifications onto your resume in tiny white text somewhere on the page in order to bypass the ai algos. But you would have to do this for ever resume/application. Also some companies are using AI to auto schedule the freaking interviews too, without the employer knowing about it. I went to the interview per direction only to find out that the interviewer wasn't even there since it was his day off, and that he had no idea about it to begin with.

But truly it is absolute hell, applying to anything right now. And they all use the same career websites.

Workday, icms, and there's another one I cant remember at the moment.

Worse timeline.
