“I sat frozen as the hiring manager laughed at my resume typo. I knew I’d blown it.”

So you guys, I just got featured in a Resume Genius article! 𝖠𝖨-𝖦𝖾𝗇𝖾𝗋𝖺𝗍𝖾𝖽 π–±π–Ύπ—Œπ—Žπ—†π–Ύπ—Œ: 𝖢𝗁𝖺𝗍 𝖧𝗂𝗋𝗂𝗇𝗀 π–¬π–Ίπ—‡π–Ίπ—€π–Ύπ—‹π—Œ 𝖧𝖺𝗏𝖾 π–³π—ˆ 𝖲𝖺𝗒

What ACTUALLY goes through a hiring manager’s mind when they receive an AI-generated resume from a job applicant? πŸ€–

To examine the value of using AI-generated software for job seekers, we asked a panel of 6 HR experts and experienced hiring managers to provide their honest opinions in our latest article, “4 Reasons Why AI Isn’t the Solution to Your Resume Needs.”

Key takeaways:
1️⃣ AI-generated resumes don’t adequately reflect a candidate’s talents and the creativity demanded in many industries.
2️⃣ Personal narratives, crucial for standing out, are often diluted in AI applications.
3️⃣ AI tools can include inaccurate information.
4️⃣ AI-generated resumes fail to convey a candidate’s nuanced communication skills.

The six thought leaders we cite largely agree that AI tools are useful for certain aspects of making a resume (like helping proofread, or providing a starting point).

However, the final product still should reflect an applicant’s personality and skill-set, and highlight their individual career journey.

Also, a big thank you to these experts for providing their perspectives:
Paula Mathias Fryer, Senior Director at SLO Partners
Chris Villanueva, CPRW, Founder of Let’s Eat, Grandma
Matt Warzel, CPRW, CIR, Founder of MJW Careers, LLC Resume Writing, Career Coaching & Outplacement
Jennifer Preston, HR Consultant at Flex HR
Joie Karcher, Experienced Recruiter and Founder of Your Network Now
Geoffrey Scott, Hiring Manager at Resume Genius

My input:

Al may not fully capture the candidate’s personality or the nuances of their career journey. Traditional resumes, on the other hand, tend to offer a more holistic view of the candidate, including their communication style and personal touch.

Are you undervaluing yourself?
Let me guess:
β†’ You’re great at your job, but your resume makes you sound average.
β†’ You’re in interviews, but can’t explain why you should get the role.
β†’ You’re not sure how to negotiate salary without β€œrocking the boat.”

I’ve got you. Let’s showcase your brilliance and get you the paycheck you deserve. Let’s not rely on robots for everything including customized brand documents like a resume and LinkedIn profile, or storytelling interview answers that resonate with another human.

And guys, PROOFREAD your resume or hire an expert to avoid embarrassing mistakes.
