Employees use AI to juggle multiple jobs – report

Employees in the United States use artificial intelligence tools to work multiple jobs, according to a new report.

A new survey from AIResumeBuilder.com of 3,283 full-time respondents found that 64% of employees who are overemployed use AI tools to manage their workloads.

Nearly half of the respondents (42%) said AI plays a multiple roles in helping them juggle through responsibilities, while 18% said they couldn't manage without it.

Among the top uses of AI are summarising meetings and documents, writing emails, managing calendars, automating tasks, and generating reports.

The findings indicate that employees are using AI tools to make better use of their time — a key benefit introduced by the technology.

The Adecco Group, in its report last year, found that employees across the world have been saving around an hour each day since the implementation of AI at work.

This is expected to expand to up to 12 hours a week in five years, according to a separate report from Thomson Reuters.

Overemployed workers

The findings come as having multiple jobs becomes more popular in the wake of economic challenges.

AI Resume Builder's poll said one in 10 full-time US workers surveyed are holding down more than one full-time job. This increases to nearly one in eight Gen Zs.

Data from the US Bureau of Labour Statistics revealed that more than 8.2 million employees are multiple jobholders.

In Australia, the latest data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics revealed that there are 963,100 multiple jobholders there as of March 2025.

"Younger workers are more likely to see overemployment as an opportunity, while older generations may view it as unethical or impractical," said AI Resume Builder career advisor Rachel Serwetz in a statement.

"Gen Z's fluency with AI gives them an edge in managing these dual roles effectively."
