Labor can't cross borders to find better wages , but capital can cross them at will to find cheaper labor.

If you do, which I don't recommend, at least purge the results of any "Not just a b and c -- but also d e and f!" language, because you will be eliminated immediately.

Matter of fact, never use M dashes or "fully loaded" sentences if you can avoid it. I would recommend rewriting all of it line by line to sound identical as possible to the listing to a layperson. In other words, if the listing says must type 60 wpm, don't leave it out that you type 160 and don't include you use dvorak.

Right! Ask for an outline of a cover letter and let your voice compose it. As someone that went through the hiring side of it for a smaller company, wading through AI slop is pretty frustrating. Also having gone through a job change in the recent past, it can feel like an uphill battle to keep filling out applications ad naseum. In the same vein, do you want to work for a company that happily misses good candidates through bad ai filtering? That speaks a lot about the organization right there.

there are tools for this? can anyone share the name of some??

ChatGPT for tailoring resumes and writing coverletters, for one

Make sure you take the time to proofread. I've filtered out many cover letter that had obvious AI mistakes that 2 seconds reviewing would have been enough to notice.

It's another manifestation of separate rules for the rich and everyone else.

They're making a big stink about it because they have the power to publicize it, but they can't stop change, only whine about it.

Just like how people might be familiar with 'quiet quitting' from the news, but 'act your wage' didn't pick up as much publicity.
