On one hand, I feel for people who are pushed out of the job market by this complete and utter bullshit. On the other hand, if you’re stupid enough to use “AI” to make critical business decisions such as who to hire, then let me just say in very biblical terms, “that which you sow you shall also reap.”
Except the business that fails gets a hand out from the government to stay profitable! At least until AI is figured out or the business abandons it and rehires some interns at a fraction of the cost using a new job code to underpay and understaff the work. Then the company can fend for itself.
I realize this is not the best time or place but if any US Citizens are in here looking for a job I might have something in mind for you, part time 1099.

so entering the job market is borderline impossible because all the “entry level positions” require you to have 3 years of experience, and then, if you miraculously get a job, changing it or getting fired is incredibly dangerous because said “experience” doesn’t even matter in the eyes of AI overlords scanning your CV for keywords half of which it probably hallucinated
cool cool, society is doing great

Its been this way for decades. They will ask for x impossible qualifications for the compensation they want to offer. One of three things will happen:
Moral of the story is apply if you really the job, or move on. It’s like running from a bear.
you only need to be faster than the guy next to you

yeah but as someone entering the job market it’s soul crushing to see all those listings. You think that you’re the problem, that everyone else entering the field does have 3 years of experience already. It just fucking sucks, what’s the point in inflating the requirements like that?
