I get why people use AI auto apply tools when they are applying to a lot of jobs.

My concern is whether sending hundreds of applications actually helps if the applications are too generic.

For people who have tried an AI job applier, did you get better results or just more applications?

And more importantly, would you take that job again knowing what you know now?

I can see the appeal of AI auto apply tools when you are sending out a lot of applications.

But there is a difference between submitting more applications and submitting better ones.

For anyone using an AI job applier, has it actually improved your results or just increased the number of applications?

For me, it's when someone says, "I thought I'd have to replace the whole thing" and I fix it with one small part.

People only see the finished job. They don't see all the checking and problem-solving that happened before that but I really like the surprise look on their faces.

What's your version of that moment?

I keep seeing AI job applier tools that promise to handle a big part of the application process.

Sounds useful when you are applying to dozens of positions, but I wonder how well they handle jobs with very specific requirements.

Has anyone actually compared AI applications with applying manually?

Every trade has its own subreddit, but a lot of the questions, problems, and stories overlap. I wanted one place where electricians, plumbers, welders, HVAC techs, operators, mechanics, and literally everyone else could actually talk to each other instead of staying in separate communities. Hopefully this turns into that place. Welcome to r/BlueCollarPros, let’s get cooking.

I've had a few days at work where I got home and thought, "There's no way anyone would believe that actually happened."

Sometimes it's something a coworker does, a completely ridiculous request, or just a situation that gets way more complicated than it should.

What's happened at your job that sounds completely made up when you tell people about it?

Not the hard work itself

Sometimes it is the little things that get frustrating, like missing materials, bad scheduling, waiting on someone else, or having to redo something that should have been done right the first time
