Yes. That's what I've done. Back in the day, before 2020, people actually still had jobs and, get this, they wrote their own CVs and cover letters! Even better, the jobs they were applying to had people screening applicants rather than just robots generating CVs and robots scanning them. There actually were human beings involved, which I know is a scary and alien concept.

It sounds that you're just jealous of the younger generation because everything is a lot easier for them. I'm sure my dad was jealous of me when I got a PC and he had to use punch cards in grad school

I've got to be honest mate, things are not easier for the younger generation. AI screenings for open positions are horrendous and inaccurate. I'm not jealous if some people want to use AI to write their CVs. I totally understand wanting to opt out of the entire process.

I'm Gen Z, by the way. I'm just not a fan of chatbots, which you seem to be.
