Companies are using AI to select the best applicants. If you can use AI to instantly reformat your resume to best fit the job posting, do so. Job hunting is now a full fledge AI circle jerk.

I'm not saying it's not worse now, but it's kinda always been a joke even before AI, right? Feels more like AI is just highlighting what everyone was thinking

If anything it's the internet that's the problem.

Back in the day all it took was making the effort to show up and giving a firm handshake. Now there are thousands of applicants and about four or five jobs.

Yep, I've experienced both, although I do admit that I prefer working from home...
