UK jobseekers could be using AI to beef up CVs, lie on applications, and complete skills tests - here's why you really shouldn't do that
Briefly

The survey found that 41% of UK jobseekers are using AI to deceive recruiters by exaggerating their skills on job applications, raising trust issues for hiring.
Employers value authenticity and may view AI-generated content as dishonest, potentially undermining trust. AI can't replicate personal experiences that resonate with recruiters.
Usage patterns indicate that 29% of job seekers used AI for interview prep, while 27% used it to complete assignments, thus masking their skills deficiencies.
AI's increasing presence in job applications risks overwhelming recruiters with inauthentic content, ultimately diluting the quality of real candidates and clogging recruitment pipelines.
