Have been helping my kid apply for jobs, which has been a really interesting experience. Next step after applying online is for him to do a chat interview with an ai thingy
Now he’s doing a recorded video answering questions. This is trippy
oh nononono. Anything that asks for recorded video should be viewed with DEEP suspicion. Check all the paperwork, chances are you'll find buried somewhere some AI slop bullshit that says they are granted rights to use his voice / face
Uh oh 😟
The government and some of the banks do the AI recorded interviews. Wouldn't look very good if they use the data
Doesn't look very good they're doing AI recorded interviews. That's not what LLMs are for
Yep. I think the AI ones are more for grad programs though.
This was for casual work at Woolies; it seems to be the go for this type of job
Wow. I work for a retail company, and have heard from the higher ups that people don't even get considered if they've been filtered out by the AI
It's good you're doing this. I remember when looking for jobs explaining to my parents that the local Big W doesn't do it's own hiring and you have to apply online for the head office to look at. Sometimes parents don't realise how much the job market has changed
It’s been an eye-opening experience - much different to the process when I last applied for a job
A few of my recent applications wanted a 60 second video of me telling them why I wanted the role.
Those went straight to the bin.
Helped my daughter recently with this. She didn't get shortlisted but good experience.
I feel bad cause the job search process for youngsters is soooo much different than back in my day
