Most job seekers aren't asking this important question in their interviews—but they should, says CEO of hiring platform
Greenhouse CEO Daniel Chait told CNBC Make It that job seekers should be posing this overlooked question to prospective employers in job interviews.
TL;DR
- Job seekers should ask about company policies regarding AI use in interviews and on the job.
- AI policies vary greatly by company and job role, and are often not clearly published or are rapidly changing.
- Candidates should avoid making assumptions about where AI use is permitted during the hiring process.
- Roughly 47% of workers have used AI for job applications, particularly for resume writing.
- Excessive AI use in resume writing can make applications look the same and potentially harm chances.
- AI can be a helpful tool for identifying skill gaps and suggesting additions to a resume, but should not be used to write the entire document.
- The goal of a resume is to effectively communicate one's story to the target audience.
