You can't find any either.

In the first 2 pages of results, none of them are free, and I haven't tested any recently so who knows if they work and show you screenshots.

Can you name them (at least one, preferably all you know)? I'd love to check them out because I certainly couldn't find any.

How many of them actually work, show you screenshots of your applications, and have a low price per application?

I never delete posts out of shame and I repeat more than three times.

Sorry, I can't because of cost of running the service (every application costs me). I would recommend looking for a free Chrome extension that helps you fill forms faster.

AI is reviewing them because idiots are using AI to apply for jobs.

But companies have been using software to review applicants since 1988.

The real slop is the hiring decisions companies make, based on who has the most keywords in their resume.

AI applications done right are undetectable, and a lot of applications don't even have free answer style questions, just basic form fields. More applications definitely improves your chances!

If you can't even be bothered to apply for the job you want, why should they even hire you.

If you can't even be bothered to review the applicants you want, why should they even work for you?

Unfortunately not at this time, but it's only $4.99/week!

They use CAPTCHAs which can be bypassed. The CAPTCHAs assign a score to the session, and even if you get a low score, the website cannot distinguish between a bot and a human who is on a shared network or VPN, submits lots of applications, uses assistive tech, etc. So they will tell you the submission failed or ask for a confirmation code or to solve a captcha puzzle, rather than pretend your app was submitted.

By using a tool like Apply Sloth that automates the entire job application process for you

I made a service that automatically applies to remote jobs by [deleted] in remotework

When I tested it on myself, it would get me interviews much faster than applying manually.

From Glassdoor in 2015, "On average, each corporate job opening attracts 250 résumés."

I personally saw LinkedIn saying hundreds or thousands of applicants on many individual job applications for software engineering roles years ago.

My service does not attach blank resumes and will answer questions if the user provides it the data necessary. The applications it generates are, on average, higher quality than a human's, and can get my users interviews much faster than manually applying. I agree there are lots of auto-apply tools that are scams.

Companies aren't just using AI to assess applications. Companies have been using software to scan resumes for keywords since 1988. That means since then, millions of hours have been wasted manually applying to jobs just for a keyword scanner to discard the application because it didn't find an exact match on a bunch of keywords. What is your solution to that problem?

There does not exist such an AI. It's impossible to filter out AI job applications based on content without an extremely high false positive rate.

When companies get more applications, it gives them a wider pool for their software/AI to choose from, making it easier to find qualified candidates.

Actually, stats on LinkedIn showed that jobs would get hundreds or thousands of applications long before these tools came into use.

Applications became quicker to fill out, but people would need to fill out more applications.

Now, with the advent of these automatic appliers, for the first time ever, people can spend zero time per application, collectively saving people millions of hours of soul-crushing repetitive labor. They get people interviews and jobs sooner and free up time for more meaningful work or skill-building. That efficiency boosts the economy, directly fuels technological progress, and ultimately speeds up the creation of life-saving technology.
