Sometimes the words you hear aren’t the words I wrote. I love that you can live with one version of a song, then read the lyrics and hear it all over again. — John, the writer behind Clarapetra

Omikina founder John N. Farmer has audited the results behind his AI-assisted job hunt.

The records support 547 application actions for distinct roles. Employer correspondence received September 27–October 14 establishes at least 98 distinct refusal cases from 79 companies; 80 match exact ledger roles. These figures describe different sets, not a rejection rate, and unanswered applications remain unresolved.

His new opinion article examines what faster applications accomplish, why limited feedback makes improvement difficult, and why hiring teams reasonably use AI to manage volume while retaining meaningful human judgment.

The next proposed experiment is a smaller set of well-matched applications with concise presentations tailored to each posting. Its effectiveness has not been demonstrated.

Read the follow-up:

AI helped me make myself easier to submit. Hundreds of application actions later, I am still trying to make myself easier to understand.

What happens when one person uses AI to pursue hundreds of jobs?

OMIKINA founder John N. Farmer explains the workflow: coherent profiles and résumés, curated responses, and submission records. The ledgers document 498 distinct openings.

His next experiment is a short presentation tailored to the actual job. He also makes the case for accountable, human-supervised AI screening on the employer side.

Profile updates, verified resume facts and curated responses helped one applicant pursue hundreds of roles. The ledgers record 498 openings; the next experiment is job-specific presentations, with hiring outcomes still unproven.
