The article starts with a chatgpt question and response and even acknowledges that the information may be incorrect. Then why are you posting it? Still a good article besides this one issue I have.

The global resume writing industry was valued at approximately $1.37 billion in 2024 and is expected to grow steadily, reaching around $1.44 billion by 2025, and about $1.59 billion by 2033. This represents a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.2% between 2025 and 2033.

This is... not correct math.

good catch. i'll remove the CAGR bit. it's not really relevant to the rest of the post anyway

Writing articles is snake oil.

very depressing read...
