How do founders use AI to write JDs, screen resumes, and prep interviews?
The short answer
Founders treat AI like a junior recruiter: they paste in a rough role description and get a clean job description back, ask it to compare a stack of resumes against the must-have skills for the role, and have it draft interview questions and scorecards so every candidate gets judged the same way. The newer trick is agent modes (like ChatGPT Agent) that can actually browse LinkedIn profiles and summarize candidates for you, not just write text. The rule practitioners follow: AI drafts and organizes, but a human makes every yes/no call on a candidate.
A quick orientation. The real value is below: resources worth your time, from people who've actually done it.
