LLMs consistently pick resumes they generate over ones by humans or other models | Hacker News

Hacker News users debated research and anecdotes suggesting AI-generated resumes can score better in automated hiring systems.

Supporters said LLM-like wording may be more readable to screening models, while skeptics questioned the study design and evidence.

The discussion raised concerns that job seekers may need to optimize resumes for machines, not people.

Commenters also warned that access to better AI tools could widen fairness and equity gaps in recruiting.
