AI Now Screening Your Job Application, New Poll Shows Trump Decline, House Votes to Hold Clintons in Contempt

A new national poll indicates a shift in the presidential race, while Congress moves to hold former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in contempt. Separately, a major new report reveals how artificial intelligence is fundamentally changing hiring. According to the latest survey, former President Donald Trump's support among key voter groups has slipped following the first presidential debate. The poll shows a tightening race less than four months before election day. In a related political development, the House of Representatives is scheduled to vote today on a resolution to hold the Clintons in contempt of Congress. The vote stems from their refusal to comply with subpoenas in an investigation into the late financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The resolution is expected to pass the Republican-controlled House but faces unlikely approval in the Senate. In the business world, a growing number of companies are using artificial intelligence (A.I.) to screen job applicants' résumés. These systems scan for keywords, skills, and experience, often before a human ever sees an application. Experts advise job seekers to use clear, standard formatting and precise language from the job description to pass this initial digital filter.
