GPT‑4o mini vs. a human recruiter: who nit‑picks better?

I gave both a seasoned recruiter and an GPT-4o mini from ResumeUp.AI the same resume + job description. Their feedback overlapped 70 % but the 30 % difference was gold.

– Recruiter spotted narrative gaps (“Why the 6‑month gap in 2022?”).
– GPT‑4o mini caught missing role‑specific keywords (“PostgreSQL partitioning”, “Kubernetes RBAC”).

Merging both sets bumped my interview hit‑rate from 1 in 10 to 1 in 3.

People feel narrative; AI spots buzzwords. Use both.

If that was 4o-mini I wonder how a reasoning model like o3 or o4 would perform.
