6 ways to use artificial intelligence to find a job

It’s no secret that with so many job search platforms, most CVs don’t even reach recruiters. With so many candidates for a vacancy, companies use websites or search engines to filter candidates. In other words, before reaching a human, your resume will be analyzed by a robot, i.e. artificial intelligence (AI).

In order for your CV to have a chance of moving to the next stage, several precautions need to be taken. You need to adapt your job search to this new era, and luckily, AI itself can help you stand out right now. Discover 6 ways AI can help you find a job.

1. Standardize your resume




Avoid keeping resumes full of graphs or figures. While some models work well for human vision, they tend to confuse robots. Therefore, keep your resume simple and with important information clearly accessible. Several online platforms offer simple and effective ways to build your resume.

2. Use keywords

If it’s a robot reading my resume, how can I make it appealing? There is only one answer: keywords. Any company or recruiter will need to use keywords to filter suitable candidates for vacant positions. And now it’s time to use AI to your advantage. Ask platforms like ChatGPT or LinkedIn AI for help in making your resume more attractive.

Remember, however, that lying on your resume is never a good idea. As much as you can fool a robot and pass a selection process, a lie regarding your education or professional profile will surely be discovered in the first few days of work.

3. Update your LinkedIn

Currently many of the hires have taken place through the social network LinkedIn and this creates a new opportunity for job seekers. Many recruiters, national and international, check the profile online before thinking of looking at a resume. Therefore, keeping it updated is essential. Again, you can use artificial intelligence, both from the network itself and from other platforms, to suggest the best presentation texts and the best way to describe your professional skills and experience.

4. Use AI to search for jobs and company information

If recruiters can use AI to find candidates, why shouldn’t candidates do the same? You can ask any AI platform which jobs fit your professional or emotional profile. If you have already taken one of the most popular personality tests, you can include the results in your application.

Additionally, you can ask for the cultural profile of any company you are interested in. You may find that, in the end, it’s not even worth pursuing.

5. Personalize your resume submission and cover letters

One of the biggest mistakes job seekers make is sending the same CV to multiple job offers. It’s essential to update sections like your career goal or interest or create a personalized cover letter. Again, you can turn to artificial intelligence to help you correctly, clearly and effectively write the words that will present you in the best light and that recruiters want to hear. So, don’t be lazy: customize every resume you send to maximize your chances.

6. Learn to ask the right questions
