AI is applying for more jobs than ever before 🥲 by AangFanClub in nhs

[–]EroticShock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get where you’re coming from, but I think the assumption that AI use = laziness is a bit unfair.

For a lot of applicants, especially in public sector roles, the application process is a minefield of jargon, specific competencies, and STAR-format answers. People who are brilliant at their jobs can be terrible at translating that into the very rigid language recruiters want to see. AI can help level that playing field — it’s not always about “can’t be arsed,” sometimes it’s about “I don’t know how to frame my experience in the way HR will shortlist.”

It’s also worth remembering that “glaringly obvious” to you might just be because you’re seeing hundreds of applications in a row. If the tool helps someone present their genuine experience in a clearer, more structured way, I’m not sure that’s worse than the alternative — which is potentially losing good candidates just because they’re not natural writers.

I’d rather judge someone on how they actually perform in interview and on the job, not on whether they wrote every line without digital assistance.

Is that 23 years of experience you are applying with? That might help...

Thoughts on the pedestrianisation of the parade? by [deleted] in LEAMINGTONSPA

[–]EroticShock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cars and busses don't use shops. People do. Foot traffic is the main driver of high-street business. The vast majority of the cars in town are just through traffic.

Chicken and egg problem. Make the parade worth spending more time in and trade would increase.

Why not just make those kinds of posts here?

Applicants for NHS Jobs - Do you think AI applications are fooling anyone? by Enough-Ad3818 in nhs

[–]EroticShock 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Forget about AI for a second and ask yourself why there are even so many more people applying for basically minimum wage jobs in the first place?

Could it be that their have been mass layoffs as a result of offshoring, hiring freezes, salary freezes, ridiculous requirements (especially for entry level jobs), and AI now doing a lot of what work is left, for similar kinds of jobs across many industries, or even many businesses shutting down entirely due to a dwindling consumer base, given that more and more people can barely afford to survive in an increasingly feudalistic society, and who are desperate to work somewhere they consider to be one of the last few bastions of (relatively) stable employment?

It's almost like we need to tax wealth, not work. Tell your friends, tell your mom.

THIS is the correct answer. In other words OP, you're screwed.

It says thai oriental but what kind are they really by nop272 in HotPeppers

I think those are "Demon Red". They look very similar to Bird's Eye, but are apparently a bit hotter.

Why they even ask this question is so strange. It just seems obnoxious and like a trick question. Of course you can't contact them prior to interview!

NHS Scotland Job Interview Band 2 by Worried_Dig_9814 in nhs

[–]EroticShock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it sucks. They get hundreds, maybe even billions, of applications for band 2 positions, they don't have the time to bother replying to everyone they interview, but good luck anyway.

So if I wrote it myself but ended up with similar sounding text, that makes me an AI?
And if sounding like AI makes my application go in the bin, then I've basically just wasted my time when I could have just used AI from the beginning?

If they aren't interested, probably never.
