Are you using AI to write your resume?
Recruiters can tell if you're copying and pasting an AI-generated resume.
Stand out from the crowd by writing it yourself or working with a resume writer.

2 things recruiters care about:
1. A 6-second scannable resume showcasing your skills. Don't make them guess.
2. Your ability to use tools and methods. Don't just list them. Instead show that you know when, how, and why to use them.
