Using AI to tailor job applications
What are everyone's thoughts on using AI to tailor your resume for different jobs? On one hand, obviously it's better to tailor it yourself. On the other hand, in this job market, people are having to apply for 100s of jobs to even get an interview. And then, there's the part where the HR teams are also using AI themselves to filter people out if they don't fit their exact keywords. What is one to do?
Asking AI for Career Advice
Seriously, don’t do it. If there’s anything I’ve learnt over the last few months, it’s that we shouldn’t bring important questions of discernment to AI, “Catholic AI” especially, but also for important decisions like career and relationships. It’s one thing to ask AI what the options are. But it’s so easy to get sucked into asking AI to become your career advisor, asking what roles are suitable for you, asking it to write your CV. One second it will say an investment banking job is a “perfect fit” for your profile, and the next it will say you’re underqualified to work at a deli counter. Have a conversation with a real person, because even if all they have to say is crap, you’ll gain something because your gut instinct told you not to listen, and that itself helps you to think for yourself. With AI, there is no gut instinct, because it’s just a bunch of words. That’s why I created this community, and removed the AI features. Let’s face it, we have enough AI in our everyday lives. We need more human intelligence, and learning to discern who to listen to.
Remote Work and Job Site Suggestions?
I just learned after 13 years my employer is eliminating my position at year end so I am looking for work. I am aware of Swooped, Dice, USA Jobs, and the better known job hunting sites. Are there any others I might not know about and if so what are they? The caveat is that unless it is for a job local to me (Conroe, TX) it’s got to be 100% remote for multiple reasons I won’t bore you with. I’m an IT professional that has done a bit of everything, focusing predominantly on Systems Administration, DBA, and data ETL/ELT, but as a lifelong learner (I love the Great Courses!) I am willing to learn any new technologies, languages, etc. needed to complete the objective.

They cannot say when all the administrative acts will be available or complete with the new contracts. And I have to pay my rent, my internet connection 🛜 before the 27th June, my scholarship for my MBA.

Well, Here Goes Nothing
I believe in the power of networking. I believe in Legion (that’s why I’m here). So I want to utilize it to the best of my ability. Although I graduated college 3 years ago, I haven’t worked a full-time job yet. After graduation, I spent 2 years working in a remote contract Project Manager position for a Catholic media production and creative services agency. I technically have a remote contract position as a Creative Orchestrator for a creative services agency that has Catholic/nonprofit clients but it’s not the right fit and unfortunately I haven’t been making much money. 🙃 I’ve been looking for a full-time job since last fall. Here’s what I’m searching for. - Remote - Full-time (ideally with benefits) - Catholic/Christian organizations, General Nonprofits, Catholic/Christian Nonprofits, Conservative organizations - Job Roles: Project Coordination, Marketing/Social Media, Communication, Administrative Now, I’m not expecting anyone to just *give* me a job. But I would greatly appreciate any advice or even opportunities to look at/people to connect with. Shoot me a message on LinkedIn (it’s in my bio) or on here :)
