Breaking Job News: AI Is Screening Your Social Media Before Interviews - Cornering The Job Market

Topics in this episode

Episode notes

You might not be getting rejected because of your resume... it could be your social media. New hiring tools now use AI to scan public posts and generate personality scores before employers ever decide to interview you. Host Pete Newsome explains how automated screening works, what employers are actually looking for, and why a single post can quietly remove you from consideration. Pete also breaks down the latest unemployment claims data and the much bigger story buried in the jobs report revisions; hundreds of thousands of jobs from last year were overstated, which helps explain why hiring felt far worse than the headlines suggested. Between questionable labor data and AI-driven candidate screening, the hiring process is changing fast. Are job seekers adapting quickly enough, or are they being filtered out without realizing it? What do you think matters more now, your resume or your online footprint? Articles: 1. DOL's Unemployment Insurance Weekly Claims: 2.
