A guide
There’s a smarter way to find your next job
Traditional job boards show you what their algorithms decide. You scroll endlessly and you apply for roles that turn out to be the wrong fit and opportunities slip past unseen because you didn’t guess the exact keywords a recruiter used.
But there’s a smarter way to find your next job.
In this guide you’ll discover how to use powerful AI tools like ChatGPT, Atlas and Gemini to find jobs that are tailored to you.
ChatGPT, Atlas, Gemini, CoPilot, Perplexity and Claude are some of the well known AI tools on the web at the moment, but we’ll be concentrating on ChatGPT, Atlas, Gemini and referring to them as AI tools throughout this guide.
