Comment Actually I think AI is ruining job searches (Score 1) 49
I've noticed that AI is used to filter resumes, but I found the tactic pretty much as bad or worse than many recruiters themselves that do not understand the position or requirements of the job they are searching for candidates for.
I mean I don't put it all on AI. People are terrible and creating resumes. I've met guys who after looking at their resume and them meeting them. It was night and day. (both ways) The resume was awful, but the person was incredible smart and very technical. I mean to the level of Einstein putting his shoes on the wrong foot type terrible resumes. Of course, vise versa also, but those are the people who get a swift exit from the Interview process and their name enter the liars list.
Anyhow. Just like what I consider the Chat Bot AI fail, so is AI resume searching. Good resumes get passed up and bad ones float to the top. This is like asking AI to pick your investment portfolio or worse. Listening to financial media sites for your investment advise. You are going to lose while they make money off your for futile efforts because you thought it was a good idea to listen to them.
The only thing I ever found valuable from LinkedIn is LinkedIn providing a constant source of people trying to sell me IT products or services that I don't want or need. I finally just purged my LinkedIn account. Good riddance.
