Make AI Work for Your Job Search, Not Against It

• AI in Hiring: 83% of companies use AI tools for resume screening.
• Resume Narrative: Emphasize AI-proof skills like relationship-building, strategic thinking, and decision-making.
• Keyword Optimization: Ensure your resume includes nearly all job description keywords to pass through applicant tracking systems.
• Use AI Tools Wisely: Write your own cover letters and personal statements, then use AI to refine them. Avoid sounding generic. Use AI to compare your resume with job descriptions and suggest missing keywords.

Keep these points in mind to navigate the AI-based hiring process successfully!
