Sorry about the double here, but I figured I should expand on this

I'm an operations supervisor. You could (and my resume did) say that I support warehouse function across inbound/outbound freight, picking, etc.

Well, it wasn't until I switched things up and said "okay, what is weak here to a hiring manager?" that it pointed out that phrase.

"Support is weak. Change to 'drives'"

Holy shit. That one word change completely transforms the way the resume looks. Of course I don't support warehouse function. I mean, I do - but it's so much more than that. I DRIVE the fucking ship.

It's that kind of shit. The simple, easy things that you could spend hours and hours on, or pay someone for every few years. You can literally just dictate to chatgpt "this is what my day is like in this role" and it builds bullet points for you. You build a Master resume, and then every job you apply for, tell to "optimize this to pass ATS scanners for this job" and paste the posting. It does all the tedious bullshit for you. I figure if recruiters are putting in zero effort and outsourcing the entire process to AI, then I should put in minimal effort and outsource the entire process to AI.

From there on out, it's just reps until you get lucky, which seems to be what you need these days. You need luck or a guy on the inside.

My last post wasn't aimed at you or your points in particular, but rather makework in general. I agree that using AI to encrispen your resume is a good idea. Anything that stands out to AI/HR/etc is a good idea. There are lots of people out there who don't know how to use new tools and submit pretty potato-assed resumes.

Pal of mine was in HR and did HR consulting after that, and she said people misspelling their own names wasn't uncommon. It is almost as if these people don't want to work at all.

I agree with your final point. I was the catalyst in starting a company, and just about everyone I poached hired to form the core of the company were people I knew on a professional basis. From there it is luck, and polish increases your luck %.

In terms of inflating your own sails...is good. Make sure to suss out examples you can use in an interview. You can also use AI to refine and boil down/encrispen your responses.

How exactly would this pal of yours know if someone misspelled their own name? Was she personally familiar with all these people?

Sounds more like she was a typical HR retard making shit up to validate her needless existence. HR consultant... fucking LOL.
