I spent the last two years deconstructing AI tools to see what actually works for real jobs—not for tech demos. I used these exact methods to land raises, promotions, and a new role, all while reclaiming my weekends. Now, I’m sharing the playbook. Practical, weekly breakdowns of how to use AI to accelerate your career and get your time back.
🛑 Stop applying for jobs
You're looking for a job backwards.Most people treat their career like someone begging:
This is called Job Seeking. It’s lonely It’s stressful And it rarely works The Problem: You have no power.When you seek a job you tell the company "I need you more than you need me." You hand over all your leverage before you say hello. There's a better way. The Solution: Start Job Shopping.You need to flip the script.
The Job Shopper ProtocolStop blasting resumes. Use AI to do your homework before you talk to a recruiter. Here is the 3 Step Audit I use.
Please don't simply trust the "About Us" page. Instead... 1/ Go to Glassdoor. 2/ Copy the last 50 reviews. 3/ Paste them into ChatGPT or Claude: Prompt: Analyze these reviews. Identify the recurring complaints about leadership and work life balance. Ignore the one off rants. Give me the patterns. Now you know the truth. (that's something we can actually work with)
Most candidates ask boring questions. Find the company latest annual report or press release and then use this prompt: Prompt: Act as a Consultant. Read this report. List the 3 biggest problems this company faces in the next year. For each problem write a question I can ask the Hiring Manager to show I understand their pain.
When you're in the interview, STOP TRYING TO SELL YOURSELF. Instead, focus on solving THEIR ISSUES. Use the insights from Step 2. "I saw in your report supply chain issues are a major risk. How is your team handling this right now?" The Result:You stop looking like someone who needs a paycheck. The Takeaway:Job Seekers beg. Use your tools to choose wisely.
