AI-assisted job application tools raise cheating concerns, prompting companies to strengthen countermeasures: Recently, the use of AI tools to assist with online interviews and written tests has increased. These “AI interview artifacts” can customize answers based on a user’s resume, helping applicants gain an advantage in their job search. Such software is easily accessible, even offering tiered paid packages and remote guidance. This trend can be traced back to the emergence of early AI cheating tools like “Interview Coder.” Companies have begun to implement countermeasures, such as paying attention to abnormal behavior during interviews, considering the introduction of screen detection, or resuming offline interviews.

Key points include: decomposing tasks into minimal steps and chaining prompts is superior to single complex prompts; using XML tags to structure prompts works better; LLMs need to be explicitly told their role is solely semantic parsing and transformation, not to introduce their own knowledge; use traditional NLP libraries like NLTK to validate LLM output; fine-tuned BERT-like classifiers often outperform LLMs on small tasks; LLMs are unreliable as arbiters or for confidence scoring, especially without clear scoring criteria; in agentic loops, setting conditions for LLMs to exit the loop is challenging; performance typically degrades when input context window exceeds 4K tokens; 32B models are sufficient for structured tasks; structured CoT is better than unstructured; self-written CoT is better than relying on reasoning models; the long-term goal is to fine-tune all components and pay attention to building balanced fine-tuning datasets.
