But hold on, there was something else going on at the same time we maybe even were not aware of.  During a job interview, there are actually two interviews going on in parallel. The organization is interviewing you, and – you might not have thought about it – you are interviewing the organization as well. How can you best prepare for this? My website: https://www.schmied.be

A 2 page CV contains between 500 to 1000 words depending on formatting, font size, and the amount of information you include. This is not a lot to convince your reader to read it all, that you can do the job and that you are trustworthy. On top of that, you want to be authentic and establish communication with the reader.  It is no wonder that most people find it very difficult to write theirs, and that the only 2 out of 100 applicants are passing the CV-filtering and are invited to an interview.   We need to make each of the 500 to 1000 words count.

The software can also generate summaries of podcast transcripts and ideas for social media posts to promote episodes.Expert TakeawaysChatGPT and similar AI tools are meant to assist and enhance the creative process, not replace human creativity or jobs.
