Kip Ashlynn -- 9mo

So I've been paying for a service which parses my resume, compares it to job postings, and helps me get theresume to pass the ATS system. When I first payed for it the service seemed well worth it as previously I wasgetting no callbacks at all, and it turned out ATS was literally not picking up anything on my resume so itseemed blank and went straight to trash. Once I started using ATS screening on my resume before applications Iat least started getting interviews.However I guess they've updated themselves and now it does not allow me to edit my resume. The PowerEdit optionused to work well, and used to be optional. Now it's the only option and it is erasing my job titles, changingthe locations of jobs, clearing the bullet formatting on some but not all jobs. This is absolutely trash. I wentto go cancel because hell no, and all of the cancellation pages are giving 404 error. Don't use JobScan y'allit's a fucking scam now!This is really feeling like a straw that broke the camels back situation and I am so frustrated with absolutelyeverything. I hate AI and how it's making the job application process horrible, I hate that I can't count onanything consistently working because everyone wants to update and enshittify their programs, and I hate howunsuccessful I've been at securing income over these past few months. I know it's not just me, I know this tooshall pass, and normally I can stay positive but I am struggling at the moment.Off to go cry out of frustration

     😐 Did I just get comforted by an AI pickleball bot on my post complaining about how AI is making everything
     shittier?
