Top 5 tips for job search in the age of AI

Technology has transformed many industries. The recruiting industry is not an exception. With the help of AI, the recruitment process is much less daunting to HR departments. On the other hand, it means that today’s job-seekers need to have “intelligent” strategies in their job search and not to be rejected by Artificial Intelligent software from the very first stages of the application.

Here are the 5 tips for you to win a job in the age of AI:

Include strong keywords in your CV and cover letter

“Strong keywords” means keywords that are relevant to the job you’re applying for. Do investigate the Job Description carefully, circle/ select keywords and use them (or paraphrase) in your CV.

Write like a human

Don’t overuse Tip #1. Stuffing your CV and cover letter with keywords just to pass the algorithm is not a clever idea at all. Make it grammatically correct, readable and precise - in a human-like way even if you seek help from some AI-powered tools.

Build your professional online presence

Be sure you have an updated LinkedIn account. An impressive personal website/e-portfolio is also nice to have.

Be sure to include your contact info

It is important that AI software (and recruiters) can contact you at ease. Many candidates are on the list, so don’t rule yourself out by missing the contact info.

Be prepared for digital interviews

Online interviews have become familiar, but what about interviews conducted by bots? Your word choice, gestures, and facial expressions will be assessed!
