Hopefully one of the areas that LLMs can actually improve. I expect an LLM to fairly accurate parse content from resumes. Maybe we even start using plain text resumes.

I'd expect LLM parsers to enforce a monoculture in that small variations from the norm will mess it up and it will downrate/discard lots of edge cases
That's already the case with existing resume parsers and evaluators. LLMs might at least broaden the monoculture somewhat.
I expect that LLMs will be used aggressively by a subset of employers for exactly all the lazy and asymmetric power reasons that an employee can think of.. being automation, the footprint of that employer subset will be much larger on the whole, and often be the first or only resort for the desperate, uninformed etc applicants
