After two long years of job hunting, I've finally decided to give AI a shot for my resumes. I've been scraping by by restoring and building lamps, but it’s been tough with no luck on the job front. I've applied to at least a thousand listings, tweaking my resume each time, and the only response I got was a rejection for being 'overqualified.' No interviews at all. I’ve always been skeptical about AI, believing it has a negative impact on the world, and I’ve been pretty tech-averse lately. But I caved and tried using ChatGPT to create job-specific resumes. Surprisingly, I applied to three listings and now have three interviews scheduled! It still took about the same amount of time to revise my resume, but the mental load was significantly lighter, which was a relief. I’m hopeful this will finally lead to something good.
