Can I use AI to apply?

At FTI Consulting, we value authenticity and want to see your unique skills, problem-solving abilities, and creativity in action. To ensure a fair and accurate assessment, we ask that you do not use AI tools (e.g., ChatGPT) or other automated software to respond to questions or complete tasks during your application/interview/recruitment process.

Our goal is to understand your personal strengths and how you think - not how an AI responds. Using such tools may misrepresent your capabilities and could impact your candidacy. If we detect or suspect the use of AI during the interview, we may disqualify candidates from the hiring process.
