Most employers (80%) in Portugal don't mind if candidates use AI to find jobs.
What's key is how well and how openly AI is used, not just having access to it.
Right now, 40% of companies use AI in their hiring process, and another 25% expect to start using it within the next year.
The sectors that are most open to AI are IT, Energy, Utilities, Public Services, Transport, Logistics and Automotive.
Job seekers often use AI to find job openings, prepare for interviews, research companies, and improve their resumes.
But, human judgment is still the deciding factor. Critical thinking, ethics, and communication skills are still very important.
AI itself won't get you the job. Using it wisely might help, but using it poorly will be a disadvantage.
