That’s been the case, they filter resumes hard with fairly arbitrary means via software; it’s why career coaches suggested gaming the system by inserting enough buzz words into your resume to get it read.
I’m actually a little curious if it’s even better with AI given it’s at least pretending to read it rather than use basic NLP (natural language processing) methods to scan for the number of times you mention something in the text.
Not better as in more accurate, mind you, but when you game the system previously, you had to make resumes worse for human eyes and better for the algorithm, kinda like how recipe blogs read like a novel before reaching the recipe. Being able to write a resume for human eyes again would be a net gain, in that sense.
Basically, I hate AI but the HR tools used for at least a decade are worse. Frankly HR people themselves are the worst though, so… idk. Honestly the whole process should be burned to the ground, lol.
