I Got Laid Off. Now AI Decides If I Get Hired

Getting laid off was only the beginning. Now the search for a new job means automated screening, AI interviews, ghost jobs, job scams, and competing with nearly everyone online.JP compares modern job hunting with the days of walking into a business, asking whether it was hiring, and handing a resume to a real person. He also examines what credible research says about AI in hiring, why applicants increasingly distrust automated decisions, how ghost listings waste time and hope, and which job-scam warning signs deserve attention.This is a candid look at unemployment, technology, and the very human cost of searching for work when an algorithm may make the first decision.Have you encountered an AI interview, an instant automated rejection, or a job listing that went nowhere?
