"Job seekers, frustrated with corporate hiring software, are using artificial
intelligence to craft cover letters and résumés in seconds, and deploying new
automated bots to robo-apply for hundreds of jobs in just a few clicks. In
response, companies are deploying more bots of their own to sort through the
oceans of applications.
The result: a bot versus bot war that’s leaving both applicants and employers
irritated and has made the chances of landing an interview, much less a job,
even slimmer than before.
“You’re fighting AI with AI,” said Brad Rager, chief executive of Crux, a
recruiting firm that matches cybersecurity specialists with employers.
The AI arms race is bad for job candidates, he said, who feel defeated when
online applications come to nothing, and for employers, who are frustrated when
imprecise AI tools highlight weak candidates. “There’s so much promise, but
there’s a lot of crap and garbage,” Rager said of the tools used by employers."
