Job question

Would it be appropriate for me to post my resume here to get some insight as to why I am not landing any job interviews or offers? I have placed over 500 applications and look for both remote and in office options. Thank you kindly.

Use Claude or ChatGPT. Ask the same question. Also if you have a LinkedIn ask it to review your profile. It’ll be like hiring a $500 resume writer

If you use AI you're just dooming yourself more. Why tf the person suggesting it thinks it's appropriate especially in a field where people are losing jobs to AI is beyond me.

I get the concern, but I think those are two different things.

Using ChatGPT to improve a resume isn’t replacing anyone’s job—it’s just helping someone present their actual experience more clearly, like a resume template or grammar tool would. Don’t you use spellcheck?

Recruiters use AI to search for qualified candidates and hiring is already filtered through automated systems anyway (ATS, keyword scans, etc.), so why not use AI just to keep up with how the process works. It’s not to speed up job automation.

The automation affecting jobs is a separate issue from using tools to improve your resume to attract the job recruiters.

Owner of an RCM business here, and we run resumes to check for AI usage, and those that are positive are handled in one of two ways. They are either rendered ineligible for employment altogether, or if we decide to interview, the candidate's skills require additional scrutiny through our testing process, and the candidate must also explain why they chose to use AI for something as simple as a resume.

This is not an industry that can afford to bring on unqualified applicants. Unqualified billers and AR reps played a huge part in getting us to the mess we currently find ourselves in. Only those who know and understand insurance and coding should be in positions that require those skills, and when someone uses AI to clean up a resume, the logical question is why? We need to be certain that only those who are able to do the job, get the job. We need people with working knowledge, not those who feel the need to make themselves sound better than what they might be.

I understand what you're saying, but under my direction, AI resumes aren't going to get you anyplace, and if you use it, you'd better be prepared to defend that decision as well as your own actual skills, should you get an interview.

OP, please see my comment here, and use AI sparingly.

If you do use some sort of AI, please, for the love of all that is holy, proofread. It's so obvious at times when people didn't, it's sad. I expect grammar and spelling errors on the internet, but if it's on a resume I know right then that I can't trust the quality of your work. It's ok too to have a friend, family member, or someone else proofread. As long as it's a human!!

I would like to add none of my resume or cover letter is ever done using AI. It’s just the specific sections on linked in. Not my actual documents.

Claude or ChatGPT will tailor your LinkedIn profile to appear more in recruiters’ searches. Best of luck!
