Using AI when writing your CV
“I can spot an AI-written CV in seconds.” I’m hearing this a lot recently.
It’s becoming self-evident when a CV has been built start-to-finish by AI.
The same neat layout, same polite-but-generic tone and bullet points that could belong to anyone.
AI is perfect for getting you started, especially if you’re staring at a blank page.
But if you don’t go back and make it yours, you’ll blend into the noise.
Some things never change:
Show the difference you’ve made in every role
Back it up with numbers, examples, proof
But that’s not enough.
Sound like a marketer and show personality. Add the flavour only you can bring. A line about the campaign you fought to launch. A proud stat. A quirky but relevant side project. Anything that says: This is me.
So my main tips are:
Use AI for the framework, then flesh it out in your own words
Lead with impact: numbers > adjectives
Inject personality, using voice, stories, style
Customise for each role, as even tiny tweaks matter
AI will help you write a CV. Only you can make it unforgettable.
