It is essential to personalise this information, particularly your supporting statement. While AI can help streamline the writing process, these tools cannot fully grasp the context or requirements of the job you're applying for, nor can they accurately reflect your skills, knowledge, and experience. It is crucial that you personalise your supporting statement by articulating these in your unique voice. Relying solely on AI to write your application or supporting statement is not advocated by DBTH and could negatively impact your chances of success in the application process. For example, AI responses… 1. Usually lack relevance and fail to address the key criteria outlined in the job description and person specification. may come across as generic and fail to distinguish you from other applicants. 2. May be ambiguous or open to misinterpretation. Without careful review and editing, the supporting statement could convey messages that are unclear or misconstrued by hiring managers 3. May include qualifications, skills, knowledge or experience that you do not possess, potentially leading to misrepresentation.
