How AI & ChatGPT Will Impact The Job Search Process

AI is about to completely disrupt how we look for work. If you haven't used AI or ChatGPT in your job search, chances are your competition has. What does this mean for the job search process and the future of recruiting?

Due to AI and ChatGPT, anyone can slap together a resume and cover letter now, and that means everyone's resume and cover letter are going to look the same. Employers and recruiters aren't going to know if your skills and experience are real. They're not going to know if you're real.

So, what will they do?

Recruiters Will Have To Authenticate You

Employers and recruiters are going to have to authenticate you somehow. The job search process will shift from resumes and cover letters to a new era where recruiters truly find you. And that means there's going to be new technology coming down the pike in the next year that is going to enable recruiters and employers to do that. This technology is going to authenticate you because it's going to use things like video in order to know that you are who you say you are.

Now, before you come at me and say, "Yeah, but they're making avatars," trust me, there will be new technology that's going to verify you are who you say you are and it's going to give you a chance to put yourself in front of hiring managers and recruiters and compete in a way you've never been able to before. Plus, it's going to increase the number of recruiters coming to you about open positions you'd be a fit for.

I don't know about you, but I hate knocking on doors and schlepping off resumes and never hearing back. This technology is coming now, and it will make it easier to connect with employers.

People often ask me, "Will I need a LinkedIn profile?" Yes, you will always need a LinkedIn profile. LinkedIn is the yellow pages for your business-of-one. It's how people find you. But it's tools that are coming down the pike to help compete against AI fakeness—that you'll use in conjunction with LinkedIn—that are going to completely change how you look for work because you're not going to look for work anymore. You're going to shop for jobs. You're going to be a job shopper. You're going to be discerning. You're going to know what you want, and what you want is going to come to you.

The day this technology drops and I can tell you about it, I am going to share it all with you and show you how to leverage it so that you can go out there and finally start getting the jobs you want and deserve. Good luck, and go get 'em!
