While some analysis shows modern resumes are becoming longer and more AI-focused, employers are simultaneously warning graduates that AI cheating in interviews has reached a record high.

    Recruitment AI may be biased toward resumes generated by other AI tools. Reports from The Irish Times and The Straits Times indicate signs of this preference, citing the experience of one law firm as a revealing example.
