I have seen such a thing once, I think even last year. Someone had sent a cv for a high paying specialist role. Among the things that he listed as what he did on the previous job was a description, that did not seem to make any sense concept or jargon wise. So I googled. And I found that exact 7 or 8 word phrase on one job description, and word by word in an example on a page offering ai cv’s. That were the only two hits. Turns out he copied or was proposed a lot more phrases in his cv from there. That was when his application came to a screeching halt. This is just my opinion, but lack of details of how something was done and is being validated with ai usually indicates that someone tries to fish for customers that think everything is better with ai

I agree. I don't think the AI will or should write everything for you. That's why I call it AI Assistant. To create a good resume, you still need to put in some work. In the end, no one knows what you've done in a job better than you.

But I believe the AI can assist you to better express your experiences, especially if you are a non-native speaker like me :)

Is this trained on or targeted for tech specific uses?

gobienan|3 years ago

It is for sure more targeted towards startup positions. But not primarily for tech. This would also work for PO, Designers, QA etc.

Can you tell us a bit more about how a resume is scored? I didn't see much on the about page or homepage.

Sure! You have to provide a Job Description to get a score. I process the job description and check for relevant keywords, the most important requirements and check them against your CV. Afterwards I provide a list of suggestions how you can improve your CV for that particular job.

Hope that helps. Gob
