“Application could be so easy - if it weren’t for the cover letter and the CV . . . ” The help of AI just comes in handy!

But: can ChatGPT (and that like) really help in creating the cover letter?

ChatGPT was released in 2022, and since then AI-based chatbots and other applications have suddenly become socially acceptabl. ChatGPT can be helpful for creating some ideas for writing a cover letter, for example.

For CVs AI-supported generators are also available, useful for design and structure. Employers might use Applicant Tracking System (ATS), or parsing software to read CVs; this applicant management software makes a kind of pre-selection; the CV is often challenging for the software (some designs can be parsed well, others or badly.)

But: AI is only as good as its user - so you have to learn the right applications, make it easy for ATS to track you.

For participation: Participants should have the OpenAIapp of Chat GPT installed on their device!
