AI Tools for Your Job Search: Work Smarter, Not HarderLast week, my community gathered for an AI Workshop that blew everyone away. 4 members shared how they're using tools like Claude, Perplexity, and ChatGPT to level up in their job search. What struck me most was the level of depth in some of the prompts. We're not quite tapping into AI agents yet, but we'll get there! Today’s newsletter is all about using AI to work smarter, not harder, in your job search. ⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️ If you're not using AI by now, what are you waiting for?!Guessing you've played around with it at a minimum. But if not: You can change that today. I do not mean using AI to autoapply to jobs for you. That's part of what's creating so much noise for recruiters sifting through hundreds of candidates and making your job search harder... But you should use AI to help offload the time-consuming elements of your search as a Stand Out Candidate. This frees you up to focus on what AI cannot replace: Building human connections that move the needle. The job market is more competitive than ever. Using AI gives you an edge by:
AI skills are increasingly becoming a workplace requirement anyway. By tinkering with AI tools as part of your search, you’re not only spending less time on the mundane parts of your job search, you’re gaining a tangible skill.

Spotlight: Using Claude Projects for Interview PrepI use Claude for pretty much everything now... from reviewing resumes to planning travel destinations. One of the most impressive demos from our workshop was the use of Claude Projects to create extremely comprehensive interview guides. If you use ChatGPT as your LLM of choice, this is similar to creating a Custom GPT. Try this out for yourself:
The power of this approach is that Claude already has context about you and what you're looking for, so it can instantly create customized materials for any company or role you’re targeting. You don't need to re-upload all of your materials every time you have a new interview — which is ideally happening at least a few times per week! WARNING: Applying AI to a broken recruiting strategy will not magically create more interviews. Getting more efficient at something that isn't working... still doesn't work. If your current job search strategy is NOT returning the offers you want OR you're still questioning what to focus on for your next move — it's time to get dialed in. Join my next free training on March 19th. I'll show you exactly what needs to shift to become a Stand Out Candidate — the top 1% of candidates getting hired in today's competitive market. >> SAVE YOUR SEAT HERE >> AI is a powerful tool, but it’s just that — a tool. The most successful job seekers use AI to get repetitive tasks done faster while focusing their energy on building relationships that land and convert target interviews. How are you using AI in your job search? Reply and let me know what’s working for you.
P.S. One of my community members built an A-Z Guide to creating a next-level interview guide in Claude Projects, leveraging all of the positioning & interviewing best practices I teach in The Accelerator's Training Portal.

I’ve seen a lot of debate on LinkedIn recently about how not everyone’s cut out to be an entrepreneur. It grinds my gears because it assumes we are incapable of evolving. “Building your own thing is challenging… and it’s the wrong move for most people.” That may be true… and it’s also wildly discouraging to people with big dreams who have a lot of fear about going full-force toward them. Or anyone who's dared to wonder, "What if..?" This was me. Thank God I listened to mentors who showed me...
