So basically LinkedIn says its fine for ourselves and our customers to use AI to screen applicants, but applicants must be forced to toil manually, needlessly, to drive home the idea that applicants time is worth nothing.
Fuck all of this, I would (and do) literally rather live in poverty.
Quite the opposite - LinkedIn will let you use AI to generate cover letters and rewrite your CV, but you have to pay LinkedIn for that privilege. They’re not taking a moral position here, but rather protecting their business.
That is not equivalent to the time saving reduction of an AI that does that, and formats it to all the various kinds of non standard application processes and automatically goes through those processes to apply for you.
Also, most (all?) business policies ultimately stem from and reinforce certain ideological and moral positions, but if you are the fish always swimming in the water, you might not realize the water is even there, or could be different.
It looks like you buffer overflowed, as your post of the news article just cuts off mid word, and various lemmy apps/instances still occasionally have a few bugs connecting replies to correct posts and what not.

I thought someone hacked my account I didn’t recognize the post lol.
And yes, every single part of job searching is bad for the job seekers because any product is going to be marketed towards the HR department.

Yeah, Frick. Or rather the buffer didn’t overflow. Can you charafter count it for me?
Edit: seems to be around 10163 characters, as copied from my post from the Lemmy web interface. Kind of an arbitrary number.
Most of it’s there anyway.
