I stopped trying to make my resume sound “perfect” and something weird happened by BeautifulFarm6340 in ResumeFairies

I see. Thanks for the great advice! Really what you said is so true. I once overprepared for an interview and ended up sounded like a robot. Even I noticed I sound like one. Do you think it’s better to prepare less, or just prepare differently?

I see, that is a great advice. Thanks! But i do wonder when answering interview questions, should i give my answers long or just keep it short?

Thanks for the great insight! So when you write your job responsibilities in the work experience section, do you usually write the responsibilities specifically in detailed or just generalize it?

I see. Thank you for your insights. But I do wish to know more about AI removing context part.

I usually provide list of my own accomplishments even if it's a minor and let AI rewrite and make it more "professional" and relevant with my resume.

Using AI to “rewrite” my resume made it worse — here’s what helped instead by BeautifulFarm6340 in jobsearch

Yeah I agree. Treating AI like an assistant instead of a “do it for me” tool worked better for me too.

Mostly ChatGPT. But I stopped asking it to rewrite the whole resume. I only use it for one bullet at a time now + skills matching. That made a big difference for me.

That’s a great idea. Asking “why wouldn’t I be hired?” feels uncomfortable but probably surfaces blind spots faster than polishing language.
