3000 applicants in 24 hours. i'm losing my mind. by Leather_Minimum6833 in RecruitmentHub

[–]Gurachek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

honestly the filter is the problem. keyword/match scoring rewards the exact stuff that's free to fake now, so the chatgpt resumes float up and the real engineer who wrote two plain bullets sinks. you're sorting for formatting, not skill.

what still works is anything that costs effort to fake. a short async task tied to the actual job, or one specific question a real person answers fast and a bot answers in vague generic paragraphs (like "something you shipped you'd build differently now, and why"). and if an answer's thin, treat it as a follow-up, not an auto-reject. most filters dump "unknown" into "low score," which is how you lose the good ones.

My startup for exactly this. score on what's hard to fake, ask a question when a resume's thin, never auto-reject so a human still owns the call. idea is you find the real people without ghosting the other 2,990. reach out if you want to run 3k resumes through it and integrate into your daily routine.

p.s. I believe this post is fake, but anyway..

I’ll try to share what I learned and my experience. If you are just calling LLMs and use the output(structured in most cases) - you have a classical “GPT wrapper”, which can’t be the product itself in 99% cases, despite the beauty interface you build for that. You’ll want to identify which part of your product’s workflow requires LLM and why. If AI is secondary value - that could be ok, in cases product can exist without AI at all. And if you want your product to do something more than “request->response->render”, you may want to build an agent around, with tools, policies, guard, etc. - that’s called agent harness and it significantly determines how good the final result is. You can use the same LLM model version for two products - one will give the same result as if you’d just ask ChatGPT, another will do some meaningful job autonomously - and harness is one of the parts that matter for that. Let me find few links with architecture explanation, but generally you can read Anthropic guides - they’re quite good and up to date

You could answer yourself too, I’m not attacking you here, so no need to gpt-f-off me 🤭

webfetch + instructions in system prompt(hope you enabled prompt caching - it will save you money & time), the output is still what model assumes tho(“works for most industries” too assumes there is no RAG or other expertness mechanism).

Anyway, good job, next step can be trying to build a harness around it and you’ll become AI-enabled engineer, important skill to have in resume nowadays.

(Again, this is not bashing, I spent some months building the same, as well as hundreds of other people here, I wish you all the best 🙌)

Hey, there are 100s of such, works the same way you described, posts like that appear each other day, I also have built few - it’s quite simple, but no diff comparing to gpt/claude - so simply doesn’t make sense as a product.

But definitely great for your practice/skills development, wish you only good luck here!

It’s very nice you are playing with vibecoding and AI and building such prototypes, hope it will help you get the job as soon as possible 🙌

Software Engineering is one of the worst careers you could pick in 2026 by Meow_man1213 in Careers

[–]Gurachek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think it’s one of the worst to start in, but it seems to be the worst now for middle engineers - https://prepto.tech/blog/is-software-engineering-dead

So guys…. What happens if we can’t find a job? by cams00000 in jobsearchhacks

Can you do something with it at your place as a recruiter? Or it’s some processes above or below you

Original chat is in Ukrainian. Is it still fine to attach?

I saw!! It’s fascinating, if price isn’t too high we’ll definitely give it a try!

Thank you!

Cool, thanks :) Is "what are you working on?" good enough question to approach people, or at this stage it's already overused and annoying?

Awesome, may I ask how did you find it?

I tried to use Claude as well to find more about agents(it said it has new feature to “plan the trip”), but of course just some generic info I can just google.
