AI Resumes, “Skillfishing,” and Your Job Search

In this podcast episode I share a conversation I recently had with my coaching clients inside the Micro to Macro Career Accelerator about a hiring trend employers are starting to notice.

With the rise of AI tools like ChatGPT more job seekers are using AI to write their resumes. As a result employers are beginning to see what they are calling skillfishing. This happens when resumes present a level of expertise that applicants cannot fully demonstrate during interviews or once they are hired.

This trend is becoming costly for organizations because it creates problems with onboarding, performance, retention, and rehiring.

Because of this employers are beginning to raise the bar and look for candidates who can clearly explain and contextualize their experience.

In this episode I talk about why this matters for social workers who want to move into macro careers and why the ability to communicate the value of your experience will be more important than ever.
