Introduction

The future is now and artificial intelligence is everywhere - your smart TV at home, the chatbot in your favorite online shopping store, the artist of the last social media post on your feed… and let’s not pretend we haven’t all asked ChatGPT for life advice. 

More and more people are becoming aware of technology, expressing curiosity and eagerness to learn more, and I’m not talking just about AI jobs. Artificial intelligence can be very helpful when it comes to job searching. And our team here at nPloy has been advocating for it since the beginning of the platform in 2018. Keep on reading if you want to learn more about AI on nPloy and making job search a breeze.

Implementation of AI in job searching

The job search process can be divided into various stages, all the way from figuring out if you need a (new) job or a career change from figuring out if you need a (new) job or a career changeup to signing up a contract. An AI can be helpful all throughout it. And while you can start with an honest conversation with ChatGPT about your current place in the labor market, let's skip this step and go directly to

Creating a CV or a resume with the help of AI

There are great tools out there that can help you structure the information - Kickresume and Teal are just an example. Start by deciding whether you want to use a CV or a resume, prepare the information that needs to be included and let AI help with tailoring the document for the job you’re applying for. 

Writing a cover letter with the help of AI

While we believe cover letters are outdated, many companies still require one. If you’re applying for a fully remote job for which you’re competing with talents from all over the world, a cover letter might be just what you need to stand out. 

There’s a general guideline on what should be included in a cover letter, but generative AI tools may help you to perfect the text and quickly adapt it for the specific role and company you’re applying for. Just don’t over do it - recruiters and hiring managers want to get to know you better and don’t need to see another overused phrase.

Preparing for a job interview with the help of AI

You’re probably already aware of the most common interview questions and how to prepare for an interview, but AI tools might be just what you need if you want to practice your responses and see how a real recruiter would rate them. For example, you can have a mock interview on Interviewing.io. Good luck!

Finding the perfect job with the help of AI

We wanted to leave the best for last. The cherry on top is that AI is great when it comes to getting personalized job offers and helping companies find the most suitable candidates for open positions. Let’s see how we do this on nPloy.

How nPloy’s AI-based algorithm helps you find the perfect job match

nPloy has a built-in AI-powered algorithm that connects job seekers with opportunities that match their experience, qualifications and expectations. It’s a smart job board and comes with a free job-matching app. 

We won’t go into details with how exactly the algorithm works, but you should know that once you create a profile on nPloy and set your expectations in the filters, it’s up to AI to find job ads that match your criteria. You will only see relevant job postings on your feed, which saves you time and makes the process more efficient.

Benefits of using nPloy to find a job

Let’s take a look at the benefits of using nPloy to get a job.

Not bad at all, if you ask us.

How nPloy’s AI-based algorithm helps recruiters find the perfect candidate

Since I’ve mentioned it a few times, it’s only fair to explain how AI works for employers. A Resume Builder’s study shows that over half of companies (51%) use AI technology in their hiring process. The number is expected to reach 68% by the end of 2025.

While candidates on nPloy get to enjoy a tailored job ads feed, AI is extremely helpful to recruiters and hiring managers as well - it’s beneficial for companies that their job ads are only visible for candidates that match the role requirements. Technology can also save time by automating manual data entry and eliminating the usual hassle around managing a few job boards at a time. But there’s no need to bore you with details, what you need to know is that….

Companies can apply for you on nPloy‍

Yes, that’s correct, we’ve turned the process upside down.

Recruiters with access to the system can proactively source candidates from nPloy’s candidate database - the Talent Pool. They can use different filters and quickly find your profile among other candidates. If they believe you’re a good fit for the role based on your experience and qualifications, they can send you an invitation to apply (we call it Match Request). You get a notification on your phone and can either accept or reject the invitation. 

❌ If you reject it the process stops, the recruiter will never know your name and you go your separate ways.

✅ If you accept, you automatically apply for the position and your personal data (name, photo, age and gender) is shared with the company.

It’s not always about job hunting, sometimes the perfect job finds you when you least expect it. 

Conclusion

If you’re ready to take your career to the next level, a little help from AI here and there may be just what you need. While it can be very helpful, remember your skills are your greatest asset and nPloy is your best ally in the pursuit of a new job.
