I have been researching everything I can get my hands on to learn how I can better help your career with the assistance of ChatGPT and other AI tools. And I have been thinking for weeks, “What guest can I interview on the podcast to discuss this with me?” For those who don’t know me, I host The Job Hunting Podcast, a weekly show for corporate professionals who want to educate themselves on how to take control of their careers. We are growing exponentially (read, I am actually completely freaked out!), with a 30% growth every 2 weeks. Going back to my AI interest, a few days ago, I had a “eureka” moment: “I will interview ChatGPT!” And that is precisely what I did.
How and why the Job Hunting Podcast interviewed ChatGPT
As a career coach, I am passionate about assisting my clients and podcast listeners in their quest for career success. So, I couldn’t resist the opportunity to interview ChatGPT, a tool that has the potential to revolutionize the way we write job applications, research job opportunities, manage our work tasks, and much more.
In order to interview ChatGPT, we had the help of another remarkable AI tool called Descript, allowing us to give ChatGPT a voice. I asked ChatGPT a series of questions, and we later used Descript to read its answers. Voila, the podcast interview was done in no time! The nerdy little girl in me who loved Star Wars, Blade Runner, and Star Trek was star-struck by having this conversation with this most interesting guest.
What we learned from ChatGPT about the future of job hunting
The interview with ChatGPT went really well. I think it underplayed its ability and smarts, which I found surprising, and maybe that is on purpose. I have been able to teach my clients to work with it to ensure the job applications they make are not soulless and have weaved in them the humanity and uniqueness of each individual. I truly believe I still have a lot to teach my clients, and I think ChatGPT and other AI tools can support our partnership and make it even better.
What I am about to say is anecdotal, but I have noticed a significant boost in results since I incorporated ChatGPT in my coaching practice. My goal is not to keep this knowledge to myself and, instead, share it with my clients so they know how to use the AI tools to help them in life and at work. The genie is out of the bottle, so it is crucial that we adopt and master using AI to ensure we are ahead of the game, whatever your profession is.
What ChatGPT and I discussed during our conversation
In episode 190 of The Job Hunting Podcast, ChatGPT 4.0 and I delve into the pivotal role of AI in the professional landscape, exploring its capabilities and limitations. By listening to this episode, you will gain guidance on leveraging AI for better decision-making and enhanced job performance, tailored specifically for corporate professionals like marketing directors. Additionally, we tackle the future of work, discussing the merits of remote, office, and hybrid models.
More importantly, we address the digital age’s challenges and opportunities in job hunting. I asked ChatGPT for advice on requesting remote work arrangements as a way to provide an example of what it can and cannot do to support professionals in the workforce. I was also surprised by ChatGPT’s unprompted motivational words to job seekers and its politeness in thanking me for the interview.
Why I think you should listen to my conversation with ChatGPT
I hope that you will join me and listen to this captivating episode as I dive into the fascinating realm of artificial intelligence alongside my esteemed guest, OpenAI‘s advanced language model, ChatGPT 4.0. My goal is to help corporate professionals discover the limitless potential of AI and its profound impact on job hunting, career development, and strategic planning for the future.
Whether you’re a job seeker, a decision-maker in your company, or simply intrigued by the evolving intersection of AI and careers, this episode holds a wealth of insights to shape your professional journey in the weeks and months ahead.
