What an AI assistant can and can't do in a job search
The short answerAn AI assistant is good at reading, sorting and summarizing postings and at helping you prepare. It cannot tell you for certain that a posting is still open, and it only knows what you want once you tell it. Choosing where to apply and what to say stays with you.
What it does well
- Reads a lot, fast. Going through postings and setting aside the ones that miss your pay, place or schedule is slow for a person and quick for an assistant.
- Finds the titles you did not think of. The same work goes by different names at different employers.
- Summarizes a long posting. Ask what the job is, what it pays, and what it leaves out.
- Helps you prepare. Likely interview questions for one posting, drawn from that posting's own words.
What to check yourself
- Whether a job is still open. Open the employer's own posting and look at its date.
- Whether it understood you. It works from what you have told it. Vague input gets vague matches.
- Where the jobs are kept. A chat is a poor place to keep forty postings and where each application stands. Keep that record somewhere you can open and your AI app can read.
What stays with you
- Which jobs are worth your time.
- What goes out under your name.
- The conversation with a person at the employer.
