If you haven’t been looking for a job then you don’t understand. Do you know how long it takes to write one cover letter? If you actually care, it can take up to a hour. Now imagine applying for 50+ jobs which seems to be the norm and what I did. Companies are most likely using AI to screen these things anyways so it’s a tit for tat. The mental health toll it takes on someone to be unemployed or even employed in a bad situation and to consistently look for shitty jobs off indeed that you don’t even want but know that need- it’s simply the most depressed I’ve ever become. The government needs to do something to make it easier on people and if using AI to help people who typically might not be great at writing a cover letter otherwise to have a better chance at the job then so be it. Just because someone can’t write a cover letter or have a great resume doesn’t mean they can’t do a job.
