My client needed me to move it and they were like, oh, no, you obviously don't respect me. See, this is the kind of bullshit that I'm talking about. No, I don't disagree with you. And I remember being like, this isn't a personal attack on you. This is like the reality of this person's schedule and it happened.
What's interesting, too, is it's so, like, vastly different. Like, you can tell in the way you communicate with people. And I think, like, there also is a whole new world of work that didn't exist when we were choosing our careers. Like, to your point, like, kids want to be influencers now. That wasn't a thing.
They want to be… Or in social media… Or in social media or, like, I don't know, paid to, like, sell a product and, you know, gummy bear hair or whatever.
Yeah, and I think having young kids now, I'm like, oh, that's interesting. You're growing up in this whole world. My oldest is almost four, so we're not there yet. But I do feel like it's just this whole other parenting dynamic. And so when you talk about the generational changes in the interview process or in the hiring force, does that come back to like parenting too? Yeah. which is interesting.
Oh, now it's like, what can I, how can I like get into AI or get into content creation?
I do feel like there is a reality where there's like a human interaction that can't be replaced.
And 100%, like even now I use ChatGPT and different AI tools to help me write more efficiently or create content or whatever that looks like. But I do think there's a way for us to work. I mean, maybe I'm being naive, but like harmoniously with AI without it fully replacing.
And I think, yes, there's going to be a ton of jobs that are replaced, but I also think it's going to create different opportunities. So I think there, again, maybe I'm just like, like cautiously optimistic all of the time, but I do think as much as things are going to shift, I do think it's still going to create new, new opportunities.
Or I think too, like when I'm thinking about my own future or your own future too, where you're like, okay, so what are podcasters or what are recruiters going to need specifically help from AI and how can I monetize that? Yeah. And I don't know the answer. But like that's something I think about a lot. My husband and I talk about it. He's like, I know, but what are you going to need?
Like how are recruitment and AI going to be partners and how can you be the one to start that platform?
I don't know. I'd love to. I need to figure it out.
Yeah, because I mean I'm hopeful that not all of us will be completely eliminated.
Yeah.
You're already seeing it too, though, like those master classes available being like how to like use AI and how to be better at it. And it's kind of one of those situations where we kind of got to get on board. But I think we're in the middle of this cool gap opportunity from like an employment and workforce perspective is like there is a way for us to like monetize what this looks like.
I just don't know the answer. I know. Well, it's a work in progress.
Yeah. I think we touched on it briefly, but like when we're talking about emotional intelligence, just two things, one on the client side. So like on the hiring side, we need to let go a little bit of like the classic resume that has the exact same job title and the work experience you need and like focus a little bit more on like what's transferable.
So like that's one of the things I feel like companies aren't doing. And so I think we need to find a way in your interview process, like, is there a way to talk about resiliency and behavioral concepts and social constructs and bringing that into that in addition to what they technically need?
And then the piece on the candidate side that I would say that I think is, we touched on this, but like, I will not ever stop talking about like the power of your network. So if you're all the way from a new grad, if you're a new grad and you're looking for a job, who do you know at the company you're looking for and how can you get a direct connection?
Because that's going to go further than your resume. All the way up to those senior executive levels, it's like, how are you communicating? And the way we all know each other is the way you're going to get ahead. I hate to say that, but it is who you know to a certain extent. And even my own client base, when I first started, I literally just reached out to everyone I've ever met ever, essentially.
It was like, I started this company and was anyone want to help me? And A lot of it's a slow game, right? Like I have clients even just this year who like I reached out to like three years ago and they're like, hey, you know what? I am ready now. And you're like, great. I'm glad I kept. It's like that fine line where you don't want to be annoying in recruiting.
