Should I Use AI to Check My Resume?
What AI can help you with, and what it can't.
Yes, AI can be good at researching topics and finding gaps between two texts, which is exactly what you want in order to ensure your resume is a match for a specific job description.
Modern LLMs can be great at telling you what the key requirements of a job are, and tell you what you're missing, even for free.
If you trust the AI provider with your personal data, you can get good insight into what skills you should highlight, or what replacements may have not considered for some of the required skills.
An AI can also find spelling errors and awkward wording which helps you keep a professional image.
All in all, it can be a good tool to enhance your resume, but it shouldn't be doing it all by itself. It's a fully optional step that may help you paint a better picture of what you already know.
