Of course AI does has bias with casual racism and sexism. It's been trained on a whole workforce that's gone through the same.
I've gotten calls for jobs I'm way underqualified for with some sneaky tricks, which I'll hint involves providing a resume that looks normal to human eyes, but when reduced to plaintext essentially regurgitates the job posting in full for a machine to read. Of course I don't make it past 1 or 2 interviews in such cases but just a tip for my fellow Lemmings going through the bullshit process.
Why are you applying for jobs that you're not qualified for? Even if you BS your way through the interviews you'll have to actually do the work.
Buckshot strategy. (I apologize if the use of that term is disrespectful to your username). I applied to hundreds of jobs over the year. Some had intermediate/junior in the position. Some were just at companies I wanted to be at more, even if not that role specifically.
I love how thoughtful you are.
