Job Post Generator (Beta)

[#1]

Starting in late April, some clients can use a job post generator when posting a job.

Lots of companies are trying to jump on the AI bandwagon and benefit from the AI share price bubble. But it doesn't seem to be working for Upwork. Their share price is well down this year.

This is terrible. Let's be humans Upwork.

Scary outcome. Is anyone watching over the quality of postings nowadays?

I was able to use the job post generator a couple of weeks ago, now it doesn't seem to be an option.  What gives?

It's a beta test, has Upwork finished it? That would be fine!

Aside from the well-made points above about aiding deception for scammers, most of these "may have been assisted by AI" job posts that I saw looked like regular job ads.

As freelancing is not full-time, exclusive employment, then why would I apply to any of these jobs, and give the client the misleading impression that I simply can't wait for my time and deliverables to be managed by them up their reporting line?

There's no way that I'd apply for such a thing.

There's a vast difference between the description of a need by a business owner for an experienced, independent, self-starter freelancer to solve, and a job post by a middle manager or HR representative outlining the skills, certifications, personal qualities & university degrees one needs to be able to succeed in the 'role'.

Vastly different things, and I saw a lot of the latter coming through with these jobs tagged as generated by AI.

Fundamentally flawed and incompatible with the platform, in my view.

Love the ai job poster. Challenge I'm having is finding it after using it once.Where/how do I access the ai job poster? It popped up when I posted first but then it's not visible now

Hi, I was googling to see if client can use some kind of AI job post generator (and I was right) because I saw too many similar job posts that starts with

"We are looking for a ____(your role). The ideal candidate should have a strong portfolio showcasing _____ (some portfolio relevant to your industry)

and then : 

Relevant skills:
____ (Generic skillsets in your industry)

This is a (small/medium/large) size project that is expected to take between ___ months to complete. We are looking for a (skill level + role) who can bring creativity and precision to the project.

And I always thumbs-down jobs like these in my feed and never read the entire post as they are easily identifiable. Just like clients vet freelancers, high quality freelancers also vet their clients. Just like clients make their decision by reading the few first sentences in the proposal to decide whether to open the whole proposal, freelancers do, too. And I think it's not just me. This is just my feedback to you, Upwork: your AI job post will potentially hinder clients from finding really high quality freelancers, thus decreasing your income because high-paying clients will have difficultiies finding quality freelancers.

Thank you.
