Use of Generative AI (Gen AI) in Job or Intern Applications
We recognize the current widespread use of generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) and acknowledge the many benefits of this technology. However, it is important that an individual’s knowledge, skills, and abilities are accurately assessed when being considered for employment. AI should not be used in submitting writing or portfolio samples, when completing on-line assessments, and in support of screenings and/or interviews. Integrity is one of our core values and all applicants must demonstrate alignment to this value while seeking potential employment. Unauthorized use of AI during the application process may impact consideration for employment.
 If AI is used in the development of a resume, you should note the use of AI and explain how it was leveraged (i.e. for review of grammar).
