Job Description
“Just paste your experience in, and it does the rest.” That’s what her colleague told her. That’s what she believed.
Amara had spent five years climbing the corporate ladder in supply chain management. She had war stories, the kind that make hiring managers lean forward in their chairs. A logistics crisis she solved in 72 hours. A cost reduction initiative that saved her company a lot of money.
And yet, none of that important information made it into her CV.
What made it? Phrases like “results-driven professional with a proven track record of delivering cross-functional synergies.” Words that sound important until you realize every other candidate is saying the same thing.
She came to me after four months of silence. No callbacks. No interviews. Just the disappointment she felt after countless rejection emails. I read through her CV the way a recruiter would, fast, skeptical, looking for a reason to keep reading. I couldn’t find one.
Who wrote this? She knew what I was about to say before I said it.
The problem wasn’t that AI had made her CV bad. The problem was that it had made it invisible. Polished, yes. Structured, absolutely. But stripped of the very thing that made Amara, Amara, her voice, her wins, her specific and irreplaceable journey.
AI doesn’t know about the 72-hour logistics crisis. It doesn’t know what that moment cost her or what it proved. It only knows what you tell it, and even then, it dresses your story in borrowed clothes.
We revamped the CV from the ground up. Every bullet point earned its place. Every achievement came with a number attached. Her career finally read like her career, not a template with a name swapped at the top.
Three weeks later, Amara had two interviews. Then an offer. Then a negotiation, she won. She didn’t just get a new job. She got credited for the career she had actually built.
