Re:A 29-year-oldused a weird resume to get 30k interviews in... by vesuvianvenus on Sunday October 31, 2021 @09:46AM (#29056934)
Note the difference between the below two items:

1. Title: A 29-year-old marketing expert used a weird resume to ___get 30,000 interviews___ in a week

2. A subheader bullet point: Vidal's bot was used 30,000 times, and he ___got 14 online interviews___ and 11 job offers as a result.

Does 30,000 somehow equal 14?

(Answer: only if you equate 30,000 self-service chatbot conversations ("interviews" as claimed) as as meaningful and valuable as an actual human-to-human interview. Basically, this article has a deceptive clickbaity title.)

(I emailed BusinessInsider's corrections account about this. [email protected])

Difference between having opportunity to take, and taking it for 600, Alex.
