Are you interviewing with an AI bot?

    "Because it's a soul-crushing, dead-end minimum wage job" Then why are you applying now? "Because I've always dreamed of working at Chipotle. I love this franchise, the food, the people, and want nothing more than to work for you"

    You have to keep them off balance!

    Reminds me of this bot convo I had to participate in for a job app earlier this year. Wow it’s so important what brand of hand drills I used

    If you said Makita you would have been shot on sight

    Makita is a very good brand though? I've met people that swore by it. I've never seen company bought tools be makita though so maybe it says more about the location.

    A place I worked at had a Milwaukee portable band saw. Id pull it out maybe once a year but it was a blast to use.

    Pretty sure companies are transparent about first round interviews being with an AI agent. Better to builds a prompt so an AI can read your resume and answer the interviewing agent as if it were you

    Is it really so bad that you guys can't afford to ignore those companies? That would be a huge red flag for me and reason enough to not apply with them.

    I mean, OP is applying at Chipotle, chances are it’s pretty bad for them. Things might be better for me, but I haven’t job hunted in almost 6 years.

    It likely wouldn’t be much better. It took me six months and hundreds of applications to find a software development position. From what I hear things took a major turn after LLMs got added to the mix. Not to mention, most companies use the AI pre screening and bin the ones that fail, meaning if your resume is a weird format, you could be getting binned simply for a technical fuckup.

    "Unintuitively, there is more than one employer in the world and I happened to work for a different one previously. I know; I'm as surprised and vaguely terrified as you are. Please let me help you put an end to this multicompany nightmare soon."

    "Certainly! What makes you think that there is more than one employer in the world and you happened to work for a different one previously. You know; you're as surprised and vaguely terrified as I am. Please let you help me put an end to this multicompany nightmare soon?"

    I wouldn't even dignify that with an answer.

    The travel time between Australia and Chipotle is just a tad too far

    Punished for giving one-word answers instead of complete sentences.

    Edit: Did yall never go to school? Typically I was expected to write complete sentences in answer to this type of bs.

    How the hell do I answer "Are you over the age of 18?" In a complete sentence that gives more information than just "Yes"

    If I'm being honest, I was born in the year of our Lord 2005 to the most amazingly loving, caring, and down-to-earth parents a child could ever ask for. At the tender age of 18, I lived life to its fullest, moved out from my parents' house, and then a year later I turned 19 for the first and only time ever. That was a turning point in my life, after which I was and forever would be over the age of 18. So yes, emphatically yes, I am indeed over the age of 18.

    Ask AI!

    I am 40 years old, a milestone that feels both refreshing and reflective, as I look back on the transformative journey of my life, filled with experiences that have shaped my character and values, from the carefree days of my youth spent exploring the world around me to the challenges and triumphs of adulthood that have taught me invaluable lessons about resilience, love, and the importance of pursuing my passions.

    I am 40 years old, a milestone that feels both refreshing and reflective, as I look back on the transformative journey of my life, filled with experiences that have shaped my character and values, from the carefree days of my youth spent exploring the world around me to the challenges and triumphs of adulthood that have taught me invaluable lessons about resilience, love, and the importance of pursuing my passions. In my early years, I reveled in the blissful ignorance of childhood, where every day was an adventure waiting to be discovered, whether it was climbing trees in the backyard, riding my bike down sunlit streets, or losing myself in the pages of fantastical stories that ignited my imagination.

    As I transitioned into adolescence, the world became more complex, filled with the bittersweet pangs of first love, the pressures of academic expectations, and the quest for identity that so many navigate during those formative years. It was during this time that I first encountered the idea of failure—not just as a concept, but as a real experience that would become a teacher in my life. Each setback, whether it was not making the sports team or facing rejection from a friend, served to fortify my spirit, teaching me that resilience is not merely about bouncing back, but about growing stronger through adversity and embracing the lessons that come with it.

    Entering adulthood brought its own set of challenges, as I pursued higher education and embarked on my professional journey. I vividly remember the sleepless nights spent studying for exams, the excitement of landing my first job, and the subsequent realization that the working world was not always as glamorous as I had imagined. Yet, it was through these experiences that I discovered my true passions, whether it was championing causes close to my heart, forming lifelong friendships, or falling deeply in love, all of which have added layers to my understanding of what it means to live a fulfilling life.

    Now, at the age of 40, I find myself standing at a crossroads, where the wisdom gained from years of experience coexists with an eagerness to continue exploring new horizons. I am reminded that life is not a linear path but rather a winding road filled with unexpected turns and delightful surprises. With each passing year, I am more inclined to embrace the unknown, to seek out opportunities that spark joy, and to invest time in the relationships that enrich my life. As I reflect on my journey thus far, I am filled with gratitude for the myriad experiences that have shaped me and a sense of excitement for the adventures that still await on the horizon.
