I'm debating whether I should bother tailoring my resume with special tools for each job I'm applying to. It seems like overkill, not to mention a little expensive. I'm just not clear on how much AI ATS systems use. Are these systems less AI-driven than I think?

I'm not sure how AI-driven the systems are but I try to at least tailor some parts of my resume just so I can highlight the responsibilities that I'm a good fit for. I would say I had better success of getting at least the first interview because of this.

Yeah, it feels like there’s a lot of pressure to hyper-optimize everything. But from what I've learned, most companies aren't using super sophisticated AI to screen resumes. It's more about being strategic with keywords than buying extra tools.
