🤖 Battle of AI vs AI Candidates are using AI to find jobs, tailor resumes, and apply automatically. On the flip side, companies are leveraging AI to find, rank, and communicate with candidates. It's become table stakes for both sides. 💻 But is this a race to efficiency or chaos? With computers essentially talking to computers, there's concern that AI could create more noise than signal, potentially undermining the recruitment process. 🔍 By 2020, over 90% of employers used software to filter candidates; now, it's nearly 100%. 📈 On the job seeker's side, Resume Builder's early 2023 survey found that half of job seekers used AI to write resumes or cover letters—likely much higher now. #everycareerhasastory #thejobfare #thejobfarepodcast #podcast #JobMarket #AI #HiringTrends

🏢 The state of attendance: WFH, RTO, and hybrid schedules Get in your three days a week… at the office. Four years post-pandemic, Zoom meetings aren’t cutting it anymore. Fully-remote work is fading as companies push return-to-office (RTO) policies. Yet, office-vacancy rates are soaring as hybrid work becomes the norm. Sensors in 40K+ global workspaces show half of desks are used less than an hour a day. 🔢 The numbers: Only 14% of US adults were fully remote last year, and over 60% can't work from home. Of those with remote-capable jobs, just 35% were always WFH. Still, 40%+ of office workers would take a 10% pay cut to stay remote. #everycareerhasastory #thejobfare #thejobfarepodcast #podcast #thejobfare #WFH #RTO #HybridWork

🧊 9-to-5 freeze: The US job market is cooling after a pandemic hiring frenzy. July saw just 114K new jobs, way below expectations, and unemployment spiked to 4.3%, the highest since 2021. 😬 Labor Dept. also revised job gains down by 818K for last year. 💼 After big layoffs, companies like Microsoft, Google, and EA are still cutting jobs, adding to the white-collar slowdown. Job hoppers are seeing smaller pay bumps, and new grads are struggling to find gigs. 👀 Looking ahead: Recession fears are growing, but a potential Fed rate cut could revive hiring. #everycareerhasastory #thejobfare #podcast #thejobfarepodcast #Economy #Jobs #Fed
