Are you using AI to apply for jobs?

💡 Almost half of UK job seekers are now using AI to apply for jobs.
(46% to be exact – and yes, we checked. 📊)

If you’re one of them… hats off to you. 🙌

We use AI too, because it’s brilliant for helping property recruiters research, structure ideas, and generally speed things up.

But here’s the catch: if you let AI do all the talking, you risk sounding like every other applicant. And that’s not how you land interviews or make the right impact.

So, if you’re planning on using AI in your next job application, here’s how to make it work in your favour:

✂️ Cut the fluff – vague claims, clichés, and U.S. spelling don’t impress UK hiring managers. Be specific and to the point. 
🗣️ Keep your voice – AI can flatten personality. Your authentic tone and personality is what gets you remembered.
✏️ Proofread – AI still makes mistakes. Even small errors can hurt your credibility.
📊 Add real numbers – AI doesn’t know your metrics and your achievements. You do.
🚫 Don’t copy-paste – AI should inspire you, not replace you. Anyone can paste words into a document, but your strengths are unique.

Think of AI as your career co-pilot, not your autopilot. The best applications are the ones that blend smart tech with your experience and voice.

Use AI wisely, and you’ll stand out for the right reasons.
