The appeal of shortcuts undeniable. Especially when dealing with a process as overwhelming as job searching. My best advice is to know WHY shortcuts are NOT always the shortest path to your destination.
Some perceived benefits of using AI to apply for jobs:
AI is faster and easier.
It knows a lot of the keywords for specific industries and can make content sound impressive.
The downside of using AI is much more treacherous:
Content could be inaccurate and often is.
Content could be and likely will be very similar if not exactly like many other resumes AI produces.
The same content could be repeated in multiple places making your resume redundant an unoriginal.
The longer AI exists and is used to create resumes and apply for jobs, the more savvy recruiters and hiring managers are becoming at recognizing this practice. And this does not bode well for you as an applicant.
