Thinking of using ChatGPT or another AI to create your resume? It’s an enticing idea. A free AI resume builder saves money and is almost instantaneous, especially compared to working with a resume writer.
ChatGPT is a useful tool for writing resumes, but it’s not the only one you should use. Here are 4 reasons why you should consider a resume writer in addition to a ChatGPT resume:
You won’t impress recruiters. 10% of recruiters consider an AI-generated resume a red flag. Over one-third of recruiters have turned down applicants due to this reason.
ChatGPT is just one tool in your box. An AI resume builder is a good start to your resume. It can write a first draft, help with grammar, and provide a resume template to work with. But if you want your resume ready for applying, a human with knowledge of your career needs to analyze and edit the ChatGPT resume.
ChatGPT could invent information about you. If you tell an AI to write your resume and don’t give it complete information, it will fill in the blanks for itself. That means you could end up with false information about your career on your resume. A human resume writer will make sure that doesn’t happen.
You need to get better at ChatGPT if you want it to be effective. There’s a learning curve to making a solid resume draft through AI. If you want the best ChatGPT resume possible, you need to know what prompts to write, what career information to include about yourself, and what keywords to emphasize.
An experienced resume writer can take your ChatGPT resume and:
Interview you to learn about your career and distill the most relevant information so you don’t have to worry about inputting everything into ChatGPT
Edit your resume so it presents you in an accurate way and doesn’t sound AI-generated
Evaluate the jobs you’re applying for to make sure your keywords and skills match up
