ADP is showing this on all hr applications now- I've encountered it a few times and always hesitate before choosing. I don't want my resume to go even further down the vortex and feed an AI model but maybe opting out just eliminates you altogether from consideration.

Have you seen this before? How have you handled it?

[Extracted text from image :

This employer may use an artificial intelligence algorithm to provide an initial comparison of an applicant's education, experience, and skills against the education, experience and skill requirements in the job description. This analysis produces a Profile Relevancy score, which is intended to be one of many factors that a potential employer will review in making its interview decisions; there are no cut off scores and all applications are visible to employers. Read more about how these tools collect, store, and retain information and the results of the most recent impartial evaluations. The Profile Relevancy score for applicants who opt out will be listed as "Not Available."

(Checkbox) I want to opt out from having my resume reviewed by artificial intelligence as part of the application process. ]

The AI score will be one column in a table of all applications.
If you decline, your application will be shown in the same table, just without the score.

The HR person will sort the table by AI score descending and call the first 5.

The question in my mind is: is refusal an automatic rejection? I guess if I was casually looking for a job, I'd say 'no', but if I was out of work and desperate, I'd say yes (and did, when I was out of work for 5 months last year).

I can guarantee they don’t hire a person to look over the applicants who don’t agree.

Personally, I'd take this as a red flag about the company to which you would be applying. It sucks, but tells you what they think about "people".

Say no. Why would you let a computer judge your outcome and not a human? Ai is the worst shit that man has created.

I guess because declining means your application will not be screened, and you will not get the job.

Do you really want a job at a company that uses AI to review their applicants?

I mean… i like money, eating, sleeping in a house… but i already have a job. Sometimes job applicants can’t be so choosey. And job applicants currently don’t have leverage. Not saying this is a GOOD thing, not at all. Its just cold truths.
