If you suspect or detect job candidates using AI in your recruitment process, do you see that as a red flag or a green light? If you reject them, you're pushing away exactly the kind of forward-thinking, problem-solving people you actually want on your team. More and more job seekers are using AI to explore careers, find opportunities, tailor their CVs, and even prepare for interviews. These are the people who will drive innovation from the inside.https://swiy.co/go-ai-savvy-employeesI recently delivered the closing keynote presentation at the AHRI (Australian Human Resources Institute) conference in Perth, talking about leading through disruption and the future of work. One of the biggest topics throughout the day was (surprise!) AI. I was pleased to see so many HR professionals seeing AI in a positive and optimistic way, as a powerful tool they can use in their professional roles.In contrast, there are many negative stories about recruiters and employers using AI, especially when they suspect or detect candidates using AI to help them in the recruitment process. Things like using AI to draft their cover letters, adjust their CVs to match the position, and even using it as a "coach" during online interviews.Some employers and recruiters take a dim view of these candidates. But that's a mistake. You WANT people who are open to AI, excited and enthusiastic about it, and using it to solve real problems. They are exactly the sort of employee you want in your organisation.In fact, if you see somebody using, say, an AI coach in an online interview, that might be not their first use of AI in the process. It might be the first time YOU see them using AI, but smart and savvy employees are now using AI at many stages of their career development.For example, they might have already used:* LinkedIn Career Explorer or JobGether Career Coach to plan their future careers* Lightcast AI to analyse and review the current labour market* Jobscan and Adzuna to do AI searches for their preferred jobs* Work180 to check whether future employers match their personal values* Rezi Resume Builder to build and adapt their CV* CoverDoc AI to draft their job application response* Yoodli AI to coach them before an interviewThese – and other – AI-based tools can help candidates on their journey, even before they engage with you.Aren't those the sort of people you want in your organisation?If you want to be a talent magnet and attract the best people, you want people with AI skills. If you reject them, you're shooting yourself in the foot.And this is not just about AI. It's about finding, attracting, and building an employee value proposition that reflects what you offer.For more, join my free public online presentation about being a talent magnet. I'm looking at the future of work, what employees want, and how you can attract the best people.It's free, public, and open to all, so register now.Register for the virtual masterclass:https://swiy.co/go-ai-savvy-employees Hosted on Acast.

The promise and the peril of AI in the workplace seem to be all anyone can talk about these days and the biggest question on all of our minds is — will AI take my job?  According to Fortune 500 Human Resource Officers, the answer is yes, AI could be coming for your job. Gallup found that seventy-two percent of Fortune 500 leaders foresee AI replacing jobs in their organization in the next three years. So how do we get ahead of this? Our guest today, Hilke Schellman, author of The Algorithm: How AI Decides Who Gets Hired, Monitored, Promoted, and Fired, and Why We Need to Fight Back Now shares her ideas.  In Mailbag, we read a listener response to a previous mailbag on the pros and cons of pensions in Europe. We also hear from someone who's wondering if it would be better to take money out of a long-term care insurance policy and invest it in the stock market.  Chapters: 00:00: Introduction 05:30: Understanding AI 09:22: Challenges for New Graduates 15:06: Making Your Resume Machine Readable 24:54: Preparing for AI-Based Interviews 28:48: Using AI Tools to Your Advantage 29:21: Transition to Mailbag Segment 33:46: Listener Advice on European Pensions 38:20: Long-Term Care Insurance Takeaways: AI is predicted to replace jobs, with women's jobs being more affected. AI tools are used in job interviews and can analyze facial expressions, speech patterns, and keywords to assess candidates. Job seekers can improve their chances by making their resumes machine-readable, using tools like JobScan, and reaching out to recruiters directly. Employees should be aware that their online activities and communications at work can be monitored by AI tools. Dabbling with AI tools and staying up to date with AI technology can make individuals more employable. Have a question for us? We'd love to hear from you!

When we're looking for a career transition, most of us go straight to our resumes. We update our experience and polish it to better reflect what we're looking for.    But we don't often stop to ask ourselves if we're truly clear about what it is we want.    In times of transition, your resume is a very important marketing tool that you have at your disposal. But if you're looking for real change, simple updates might not be helping you find the best transition that suits your unique skillset.     The first step on the road to change is finding clarity.    Professional resume writing services can help connect the dots between who you are and what value you can offer an organization, but in order to do that, YOU MUST BE CLEAR ON WHAT YOU WANT AND WHERE YOU'RE HEADED.   Today, Blake welcomes Meg Applegate, a certified resume writer and personal branding strategist who connects high-achieving women to career advancement. Recently named one of Jobscan's Top Experts to Follow on LinkedIn in 2022, her work is also featured in ForbesWomen, Fairygodboss, and Expert Resumes & LinkedIn Profiles for Managers and Executives.    In this episode, you'll learn why it's important to explore your options and discover what makes you valuable to an organization— and most importantly, how to market your story to align you with the right kind of work. You'll learn why career transitions are actually beneficial pathways to discovering your unique strengths and why asking for help and guidance makes the path less rocky and a lot more enjoyable than doing it alone.    What You'll Learn: Why career pivots and transitions should be normalized (6:30) How to think about your brand and create a story around it (10:32) What happens when you change jobs without really knowing what you want (19:03) Why what you can do isn't always what you can do best (26:13) The relief you get by asking for help, especially when it's from people who can understand your unique perspective (35:56)   Favorite Quotes: “Having pivots and having transitions, every single person has them. So it's interesting that it feels taboo because everyone has some sort of pivot.” —Meg “The resume is a marketing tool. And if you don't know where you're going, then you don't know how to market yourself best. So it's really important that you have clarity.” —Meg “The resume writing process is a really good preparation process for the job search because you're really understanding and distilling down your value.” —Meg “When we don't understand who we are, we're living a muted life. We see signs and symptoms that we're not happy, we see all these things happening. We try to solve them. But sometimes it takes that outside perspective or that outside opportunity to really shift things. And it is life-changing.” —Blake   Additional Resources:    Connect with Meg: Website: https://www.hingeresume.com  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/megapplegate/  FB: https://www.facebook.com/hingeresume  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hingeresume/   You can snag the first module of Meg's digital course, The Resume Key -  Resume 101 + Your Materials Checklist for a Top Performing Resume by clicking “Free Preview” here: https://hingeresume.thinkific.com/courses/hinge-resume-the-resume-key -------------   Rather than hoping the grass will be greener, identify what the RIGHT next step is.  We can help you do just that.    Get clarity on where you are on your journey to career fulfillment, where you're headed, optional paths to get there, and the right next step to take.   Start your complimentary, Personalized Career Fulfillment Plan by going to www.thebridgetofulfillment.com/plan   Want free resources to set your job search up for success?

It was my absolute pleasure to have this candid, most genuine conversation with Dan Roth.   He is so damn relatable and lays down some serious truth about job hunting and recruiting for professionals with ADHD.   “I don't think that job seekers should be so desperate to take any job that they can. Now I understand that finances are. I am not saying that it is not difficult, but if we do a better job in our communication between the recruiter and the job seeker, then at the end of the day, you're going to be put in the best position where you don't have to worry about being there a year from now, because you have the long-term to look at.” Dan Roth   Dan shared his personal experience with ADHD, his view as a recruiter supporting neurodiversity in the workplace. Towards the end of this talk, he shares three success tips when looking for a new job.    Dan, is an internationally recognized recruiter and professional speaker. Having recently been named one of the Top 25 Job Search Experts to Follow by Jobscan, Dan uses his platform to encourage continuous discussions surrounding mental health while being a strong neurodiversity and women's empowerment advocate and an abolotionist.
