There are two sides to this with companies automating hiring with AI as well, so the whole interface between employers and job seekers seems to be getting an ever thicker layer of bots talking to bots. I've heard stories of interviewees clearly reading responses off their screen in video interviews even.

So although it seems like an inevitable arms race, having built engineering teams in the past this is all really unsettling. I've worked in, and hope to continue to work in, a remote-only job. So much of my process in hiring relied on relatively subtle signals. It seems like in person interviews will still be able to provide those signals for now, but I have a feeling personal recommendations are going to become increasingly critical for remote companies in their hiring efforts.

This is all giving me flashbacks of Rehoboam in Westworld.

Well, I was finding it very hard to apply jobs and to be honest, i was loosing lot of jobs especially top tier companies as I am used to recruiters calling me or finding me on LInkedIn but lately that has dried out. so I bit a bullet and built this AP application agent and found i got interviewed at Cohere, Scale AI etc. which otherwise I would have never got these calls.

so AI job application did helped me

Also one more issue with job application through workday or otherwise, u have to customize CV, cover letter which itself has become full time job u know. so AI agent doing it for u and u review it and changes if needed is definitely makes job applying bit easier as is technical stuff is harder
