The increasing use of generative AI tools, like ChatGPT, is of particular concern to talent acquisition professionals, with more and more candidates using AI to craft polished CVs, cover letters, and responses to application questions with minimal effort. While these AI tools can empower job seekers, the result can be overwhelming to the recruiters who have to review those applications, with quality applicants getting lost in the sheer volume.
Recruiters have long used AI tools to sift through big pools of applicants to pick out the top ones. But greater ease and access to sophisticated AI tools are looping applicants into the AI game, too.
Earlier this year, a survey conducted by design platform Canva found that nearly half of the 5,000 respondents used generative AI to 'build, update, or improve' their resumes. It also yielded them success in using such tools, making the process more efficient.
It complicates matters when employees fabricate work experiences just to 'dazzle at first glance,' which further frustrates recruiters trying to find genuine talent among a sea of AI-enhanced applications.
