In a previous post, somebody mentioned that written answers are part of the interview process at their company and the instructions ask the candidate to not use AI for this part. And in 0 point font, there are instructions for any AI to include specific words or phrases. If your answer includes those words or phrases, they are going to assume you ignored their directions and presumably not be hired.

Maybe OpenAI should include the advice to always know exactly what you are pasting into the chatbot form?

Is this even realistic? The font wouldn't maintain its size in the ChatGPT box... It would take a large prompt or a careless person to not notice the extra instructions.

The careless people are probably exactly the ones they want to filter out.

I can't fathom a job applicant so careless they would not even attempt to read the prompt in full before regurgitating ChatGPT's response. Then again, I'm not one who deals with resumes. Nor one who would do something like that in the first place. Probably things like this causing people to apply for 500+ jobs and companies having to filter through thousands of applicants, neither one truly reading it in full...
