In a few years maybe we’ll be back to visiting in person and handing out paper resumes. Look the boss firmly in the eye and give them a strong handshake.
The interviewer’s pocket ai measures your grip strength and gaze intensity. Your grip is too firm, eye contact below local cultural norms. Diagnosis:
COMPULSIVE MASTURBATOR
“Welcome to the team!”
The issue is companies have job “openings” they never I tend to fill, because they’re making the workers they do have do more than they’re paid to.
They’ll leave a posting up for years and never give an interview, while telling their employees they can’t find anyone and to be a “team player”.
When one quits from overwork, they reach out to whose already applied
The issue is companies have job “openings” they never I tend to fill,
also because having open job posting makes it look like the company is growing
About 90% of the people I interview have no right to apply for the jobs they do. They lack the basic skills and reasoning required to do the work.
If even a small number of people start doing this then it’s going to break all the hiring channels and we’ll only be able to hire referrals and friends.
And if you apply to 5000 posting and get 20 calls, that’s a fucking horrible reply rate, id bet it’s worse than just submitting your actual resume without the AI.As for Joseph, though? He eventually received a contract job offer through LazyApply. But he did score some big-deal interviews at Apple and the White House — through existing connections, not the AI.
What a shit article.

I thought that was the only point anyone was trying to make here…
If even a small number of people start doing this then it’s going to break all the hiring channels and we’ll only be able to hire referrals and friends.
my multinational employer thought that they could do that since they one of the biggest players in the industry so they figured they can force return to the office and they could just replace everyone who left as a result. fast forward a year and they’ve had to outsource hiring to bolster their own recruitment because the referrals they got were in such high demand that they had to compete with other major industry players to hire them and they had to double down on finding people through traditional means.
i know it’s not like that in all industries; but that ones that stress or rely on experience are really hurting to find people like this because the social circles of ones with that experience are others with similar experience and those circles are tiny.
i’ve applied to this company several times in the past and got auto rejected; it wasn’t until the attrition got so bad that they deigned to give me the time of day.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Applying for a job has always been a frustrating task, and employers getting deluged with a huge number of online applications is making the process more painful than ever.
Enter software engineer Julian Joseph, who as Wired reports attempted to brute force his way to gainful employment by making very cynical use of AI.
Of course, you could also view LazyApply as a horrifying sign of things to come: of AI tools that flood would-be employers with overwhelming quantities of low-quality applications, drowning out the suckers who do them carefully by hand.
At the same, the tool highlights how tedious the process of applying for jobs has become, often requiring non-standardized forms that force applications to fill out the same information over and over.
Worse yet, employers are increasingly relying on automated tools themselves to wade through a huge number of applicants, making the process even more opaque.
At the end of the day, recruiters agree that an AI-assisted shotgun approach is far from ideal, especially compared to the number one way to find a job: through referrals.
The original article contains 330 words, the summary contains 176 words. Saved 47%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
And I bet the 20 interviewers used AI to find him.
