In this episode of the "Get Hired" podcast, host  Nicky Bulmer and co-host Michelle Frechette interview Tatiane, an experienced WordPress developer. Tatiane shares her journey in WordPress development, emphasizing her skills in creating and customizing themes and plugins. The discussion covers Tatiane's approach to handling feedback, collaborating with teams, and optimizing WordPress sites. Nicky and Michelle provide Tatiane with resume and interview tips, highlighting the importance of clear communication and showcasing both technical and soft skills. The episode concludes with practical advice for job seekers, reinforcing the podcast's mission to enhance job application materials and interview skills.Top Takeaways:Cover Letters Should Be Concise & Tailored – A strong cover letter shouldn't just repeat the resume. Instead, it should highlight why your skills and experience are a great fit for the specific role and company. Less is often more—focusing on one key project or skill that directly relates to the job can make a stronger impact than listing everything.Confidence & Clarity Matter in Interviews – Candidates should confidently communicate their skills, especially when discussing technical expertise. Using specific language, such as naming programming languages or frameworks, helps interviewers understand the depth of knowledge. Additionally, if an interviewer has an accent or uses unfamiliar words, repeating for clarification or asking them to rephrase is a good strategy.Continuous Improvement & Adaptability Lead to Success – Surrounding yourself with the language, culture, and best practices of your industry (as Tatiane did with English) makes growth easier. Being open to feedback, refining application materials, and improving communication skills over time can significantly increase job prospects.Mentioned In The Show:The Events Calendar Liquid WebDungeons and DragonsGitHub WPIncludes.me

I hope you've had another fantastic week and are coming into the home stretch before the weekend. What better way to celebrate than to run through some of the latest happenings at the intersection of business, technology, and human experience? With that, let's get to it. AI Job Seeking Gone Wrong - If you're going to use AI to help write a cover letter, and I'd strongly encourage you to do so, please at least take the time to proof it for [insert info here] gaps. The rise in failure to do so is causing a lot of noise, but is it an AI problem or a people problem? Lessons from Al Pacino - While I have my concerns about people becoming overdependent on AI, it's not an issue limited to AI use. Just ask “The Godfather.” Al Pacino has an incredible story about how taking his eye off the ball left him discovering he was bankrupt in his 70s. So, don't think avoiding AI means you're secure. Walmart RTO Response - Walmart and 3M are two of the latest big players in the news for their questionable RTO policies, but one Walmart C-suite exec is taking a stand. Rather than relocate to somewhere in Arkansas, Walmart's CTO opted to leave the company. It's encouraging when folks at the top are willing to go against the current. Undesired AI Ressurection - I've talked on multiple occasions about the risks of looking to AI for the artificial resurrection of lost loved ones through ghostbots, but how would you feel if your lost loved one was resurrected without your knowledge? One father made his feelings pretty clear when he discovered his tragically murdered daughter on Character.ai. Chipotle AI Recruiting - I love a good pun, and if you interview at Chipotle anytime soon, you may get to interact with one literally. That's right, they've created an AI bot “Ava Cado” to help streamline their hiring. Only time will tell how it all plays out. However, based on my initial investigation into their strategy and plan, I'd give it my AI stamp of approval. Show Notes: In this weekly update, Christopher explores the intelligent use of Generative AI (Gen AI) in job applications, emphasizing the importance of providing thoughtful prompts and avoiding lazy mistakes. The discussion extends to the ethical concerns of AI, such as the unauthorized use of a deceased individual's likeness and the need for better governance. He shares Al Pacino's story of financial recovery highlighting resilience and responsibility, and address financial uncertainty, affirming the value of personal effort over material wealth. Additionally, he examines the impact of return-to-office mandates by major companies like Walmart and 3M, offering advice for employees. Highlighting Chipotle's AI-driven recruitment process 'Ava Cado', we showcase how AI can streamline operations while discussing the broader implications for the future of recruitment. Tune in for a blend of practical advice, ethical insights, and predictions on AI's role in business and technology. 00:00 - Introduction and Weekly Update Overview 01:36 - The Viral ChatGPT Cover Letter Controversy 11:37 - Al Pacino's Financial Downfall and Recovery 20:14 - Return to Office Mandates: Walmart and 3M 31:08 - Unwanted AI Resurrection 39:43 - Chipotle's AI Recruiting Strategy 48:46 - Conclusion and Final Thoughts #ai #recruiting #flexibleworking #strategy #ghostbots

Improve your job search outcomes with these tips Erin Wolfram shares on this episode of Leadership on the Links!  Erin is a Certified Professional Resume Writer (CPRW) and Professional Etiquette Consultant who is the owner of Career Advantage Golf –  career consulting services geared toward professionals in golf course maintenance and turf management.  Her business partners with the Golf Course Superintendents Association of America (GCSAA) to provide its members with free resume and cover letter review services, along with additional discounted career services.  Prior to becoming a business owner, Erin worked in career services and career course development. Erin has her B.S. in Secondary English Education from Kansas State University and a Master of Science in Counseling Psychology and a Master of Science in Educational Technology from The University of Kansas. In this episode, Erin Wolfram of Career Advantage Golf shares insights aspiring superintendents and other golf professionals can use to stand out in their job search. Demonstrate the Value You Can Bring After reviewing thousands of resumes, Erin can confidently say many job seekers are very duty and responsibility focused. While this can be a great way to highlight your experience, it's important to also demonstrate what you have accomplished in previous roles. Showcasing successful projects, leadership strengths, and tangible results all help differentiate yourself from other candidates. Her advice is to highlight how your leadership skills positively impacted your facility, crew, and the overall organization. Update Your Application Materials on a Regular Basis It's very common for Erin to run into job seekers who haven't updated their application materials, such as their resume, cover letter, and portfolio, in over a decade. Of course, this often leaves these job seekers little time to update their materials and submit a polished application. Erin recommends taking a more proactive approach by regularly updating these materials, even if you are not actively applying for jobs. This ensures your information is accurate, up to date, and not rushed.  Tailor Your Application to Each Role Hiring managers can spot an application that was copy and pasted from another. Erin recommends first developing a strong foundational resume and then tweaking it to adhere to the job you're applying for.  It's important to show employers that you put the effort into your application. Hiring managers want to see that you can communicate your specific strengths as a candidate in relation to the role.  Take an Active Interest in Your Profession Don't just join professional associations, but take an active role in them. Go to the meetings and annual conferences, network with members, build relationships, and really market yourself.  By doing this, you are showing others that you are committed to your industry and professional development. You will soon find that by fostering these connections, more opportunities will come your way.  Enjoy this episode with Career Advantage Golf owner Erin Wolfram… Soundbytes 19:21-19:46 “I think, in this industry, in particular, portfolios are important. And I find that a lot of people don't have a portfolio. And again, sometimes they are requested to bring a portfolio to an interview, and then there's this mad dash to get something together that could be much better if they would have started early. So I think portfolios are a great way to market yourself in this industry. ” 20:47-21:14 “In order to really market yourself in an interview, you want to provide specific answers that give quality examples that demonstrate the value that you've brought to your previous organizations that you will then bring to this future organization. So, really thinking about specific examples that demonstrate your greatest skills, strengths, and qualifications.” Quotes  “The folks who I work with who utilize LinkedIn, and utilize it effectively, are marketing themselves better than others.” “Think of examples that you want to share with others. And know that it's not bragging, it's not being conceited. It's what you have to do to demonstrate your value.” “Get with your partner, get with your friends, get with someone like me, and actually practice answering questions, because it's not something that's comfortable, right?” “I do recommend that you get some advice from somebody else in your industry.” Links mentioned in this episode: Tyler Bloom Consulting: https://tylerbloomconsulting.com/ Career Advantage Golf: https://careeradvantagegolf.com/ Connect with Erin Wolfram on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/erinwolfram/ | https://www.linkedin.com/company/careeradvantagegolf/

 The AI-Powered Job Search: Your Secret Weapon for Job Search Success Hey everyone, and welcome back toCoaching for Millennials where we dive into all things career and life and how to help you live your best life. Today, we're all about unlocking the power of artificial intelligence in your job search. Specifically, we'll see how the amazing tool, ChatGPT, can give you an incredible edge.  AI-powered assistance can take a lot of the guesswork and stress out of the job search. It won't replace your hard work, but it can definitely amplify it!   #chatGPT #millennials #jobsearch #careerchange #resume #coverletter #AI #careercoach #lifecoach Segment 1:  Refining Your Job Search with ChatGPT  * Finding the Right Opportunities: ChatGPT can analyze your interests, skills, and experience and suggest tailored job titles and fields to explore. Let's see how this works:    * Prompt Example:  "I have a background in marketing and enjoy creative problem-solving.  What are some job titles within a 50-mile radius of Syracuse, NY that fit this description?"  * Targeting Your Search:  Want to drill down on job openings? ChatGPT can understand complex job descriptions and extract key requirements to help laser-focus your search.    * Prompt Example:  "Analyze this job description and give me a list of keywords to help refine my job alerts."   Segment 2: Crafting a Killer Resume with ChatGPT  * Tailoring to the Job Description: ChatGPT can match your resume to specific job postings word-for-word, making sure you hit all the right notes.    * Prompt Example: "Rewrite my resume to highlight the skills and experience relevant to this [paste job description here]."  * Conquering the Skills Section:  Stuck on wording? ChatGPT can help you articulate your strengths clearly and persuasively.    * Prompt Example:  "I'm proficient in Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator.  Give me several bullet points showcasing these skills for my resume."   Segment 3: A Cover Letter that Stands Out  * Conveying Your Value: ChatGPT can help you express WHY you're a great fit for the company and position. It'll give those generic cover letters a kick!    * Prompt Example:  "Write a strong opening paragraph for a cover letter where I'm applying for a social media manager role and have 3 years of experience.  Highlight my passion for community engagement."    * Adding That Personal Touch:  ChatGPT can help personalize your cover letter by researching the company and incorporating their mission into your message. Let's see that in action:    * Prompt Example:  "Give me ways to connect my experience to [Company Name]'s recent initiative to [initiative description from the company website] in the body of my cover letter."   Wow, who knew your virtual assistant could be a career coach! I hope you found these tips useful.  Remember, ChatGPT is a powerful tool, but it's all about how you use it.  * Call to action: Try ChatGPT for yourself! Get started at https://chat.openai.com/chat.

Here are the top 10 AI prompts, along with explanations, to help job seekers and career changers streamline their efforts: Resume Enhancement "Analyze my resume. Identify areas for improvement, suggest keywords based on current industry trends, and ensure it's ATS-friendly." ATS (Applicant Tracking Systems) are used by many companies. This prompt ensures your resume is optimized to pass those filters while incorporating the most relevant terms. "Rewrite my resume bullet points to highlight accomplishments, using strong action verbs and quantifiable results." AI can turn generic descriptions into powerful, outcome-focused statements, making your experience stand out. "Based on [target job title or industry], tailor my resume to emphasize the most relevant skills and experiences." This creates focused resumes for each application, increasing your appeal to hiring managers. Cover Letter Power "Draft a cover letter for [job title] at [company name]. Use highlights from my resume and tailor it to the job description." This generates a strong base for your cover letter and saves you valuable time. "Check my cover letter for grammar, tone, and persuasiveness. Suggest ways to make it more engaging." AI provides a second set of eyes, ensuring your cover letter is polished and impactful. Job Search Optimization "Find job postings matching my skillset: [list your skills]. Prioritize companies located in [your preferred area] or offering remote work." Saves time scouring job boards, giving you a targeted list of openings. "Recommend alternative job titles or industries where my skills would be transferable. I'm looking to transition my career." A powerful prompt for career changers, as AI can uncover opportunities you might not have considered. Interview Preparation "Act as a hiring manager and ask me typical interview questions for [job title or industry]. Provide feedback on my answers." Prepares you for the real thing and gives you insights into improving your responses. "Generate a list of insightful questions I can ask the interviewer about the company and the role to show my interest." Asking good questions shows genuine engagement, and AI can help you formulate thoughtful ones. General Guidance "I'm feeling overwhelmed by my job search. Suggest strategies to stay organized, motivated, and focused on my goals." The job search can be taxing. AI can provide practical tips and offer a boost when you need it. Tips: Be specific: Provide your resume, target job descriptions, or examples of your work. The more information, the better the output. Iterate: Use these prompts as starting points. Refine and adjust them based on the AI's responses. Don't fully rely on AI: AI is a tool. Always proofread, personalize, and use your own judgment. Let me know if you'd like to try using one of these prompts – I can help you tailor them and walk you through the process!

Writing cover letters is stressful. If I surveyed a thousand job seekers about their least favorite parts of the job search, I bet most of them would put this task near the top of their list. But as awful as they can be, they're still important and can help set you apart. A good cover letter lets you highlight the most important details of your application right away. Here's my straightforward, bullet point-based cover letter strategy that will help you curb the overwhelm and get right to the point. Keeping the reader engaged through the first page of your application goes a long way to getting your foot in the interview room door. Discover my go-to template for creating an impactful cover letter every time:Why white space and brevity will land your cover letter on the top of the stack;How to harness the awesome power of the rule of three;Step-by-step instructions for creating your own low-stress, speedy cover letter writing strategy.Related Links:Hired: my Job Search Accelerator - https://www.bossedup.org/gethiredEpisode 365, How To Write A Meaningful Cover Letter For Today's Competitive Job Market - https://www.bossedup.org/podcast/episode365Episode 415, How To Use AI To Write Cover Letters Faster - https://www.bossedup.org/podcast/episode415Bossed Up Courage Community - https://www.facebook.com/groups/927776673968737/Bossed Up LinkedIn Group - https://www.linkedin.com/groups/7071888/

The typical cover letter sucks. It literally hurts to read them they are so bad. But, don't fall for the "fried ice cream" peddled by the private sector recruiters who argue that cover letters are no longer necessary. That is not true. Every public sector executive competing for a position needs to have a cover letter and this is one of the easiest places elite candidates can differentiate themselves from their competition.  Write a great cover letter that captures the reader's attention and you are going to stand out from the crowd.  However, you can't write a kick-ass cover letter if you are committing one of these 8 deadly sins.
