>resumes generated mostly by ChatGPT

I've been wondering how I could go about making my resume not look 'ai generated', but I'm not sure how someone would go about approaching such a problem. Best I could come up with was keeping it down to one page, and only fitting in relevant skills, keeping it 'humble' in comparison to pages among pages that something like chatGPT might generate. Unfortunately it does not seem like such a strategy works when it comes to standing out from the piles of applications using AI, a good amount of which I assume don't even have the skills listed.

Just add "but write it in such a way that it doesn't look like ChatGPT wrote it." to the end of your prompt.


Yes, and don't list skills like git, numpy, scipy, in some massively long bullet pointed list. Two pages max. Qualifications and experience, with previous role title front and center.
