🌟 This is the channel I wish I could have subscribed when I first entered the workforce
I'm Jeff, a full time Product Marketer. In my spare time I like to tinker with tools and create systems that help me get things done faster - or as one of my friends puts it: "Get better at being lazy" 😏
I make videos on practical career and productivity tips without all the "fluff"
So if you're a college student, working professional, or super ambitious high schooler, make sure to subscribe to my channel 💡
Question: say you make a GPT. Which will then make a conversation. You then later on take that conversation and convert it into a pdf or text file which you then upload back into the GPT directly. Can this help improve your GPT to help learn more about past interactions? This is what I’m currently doing.
Love this and your videos have been beyond helpful. My one question is what if the company doesn’t have a recruiter on linkedin. Can your reach out to other professionals at the company? Thank you !
Hello Jeff, thank you very much for posting this! Your videos have been very helpful. I note you had advised "work experience" should be before "education". If I am an individual who has been working for the last decade but took a break (left my job) to pursue a Master's degree, should I still indicate "education" behind "work experience"? I am unsure in this regard, given my most recent "experience" in a way, would be "education".
NEVER use TLA's! (three letter acronyms). Unfortunately, none of this matters. My wife works in HR and she doesn't even look at cover letters or resumes. They use software that automatically scans everything for buzzwords. Also, "oh, this person didn't include their address which 99% applicants typically do. They must be lazy. DENIED." The biggest tip I can say is don't include jobs that don't apply to the position you're applying for. So many people will apply for an IT position and include that they worked for McDonald's on their resume.

Hi, Jeff! Thank you for the useful tips! I'm one of the candidates who thought of watching this video right after an interview😂 I just realized that I don't have anything to mention about the interviewer's personal interests. In order to be a sneaky overachiever, what do you advise me to do in this case?
Can you start a conversation and come back to it at a later date to add a question? In other words, are conversations with AI saved for future converse?
Can you set those task views to reference more than one task database? For instance for multiple projects happening at the same time with various related tasks to each induvial project, Can you build out a simple weekly task view that shows all tasks from all projects?
What do you do though if you don't have access to metrics from previous employers? And some of us don't necessarily have a measurable impact on a company. Guess I could lie but I assume they could just find that out...

Hey Jeff, I am not able to send more than 100 emails a day. All other line items shows "Service Invoked" in the Email sent section. How do we fix this?
STOP it now. Received an email from en entity called "eko" asking for a donation to their cause. It was in alignment with my cause, but I never donate under certain circumstances, and being "pitched" via the internet is one of them. This entity claimed "Meta" is Facebook's AI tech, and that it is using our photos and info for training purposes. It does sound plausible. Soon, due to AI, we'll be getting non-stop emails, messages, calls, and video images of our loved ones in trouble and in need of money. AI will make scamming people so much easier, and it will complicate our lives exponentially. They will look and sound exactly like our loved ones, though be imposture with nefarious intent. Looks like me, as well as everyone else, may have to ditch Facebook and port over to a different platform without AI. To all inventors out there. We NEED inventions to solve the average person's needs relative to emerging technology. Our privacy is burning away fast. Please invent, "Drone Away." so we can just push a button to disable this intrusive menace when a drone is spying on us on our property, a foot away from our window. Moreover, houses need to start being built the right way with this future in mind. Insulation should now not only keep heat out and cold in (or vice versa), but also keep out spying tech that will be able to penetrate our homes and invade our privacy. Do we really want the government listening to our every conversation? We moved from IP (internet protocol) version 4 to IP version 6 because we were running out of numbers. We have enough numbers to address and control every single molecule on the planet I heard. The future is moving toward total integration. We will be able to control every single light bulb in our house, the furnace, AC, oven, microwave, toaster, unlock and lock our doors via our smartphones if we want. However, this system is highly susceptible to hacking. It is a liability that many people may embrace at first only to be taken advantage of.
Great vid and tips thanks! Is there a way to schedule a different time on each individual mail, so that they don't all send at the same time? For instance every 2,5,10 etc. minutes?
@4:06 i took a screebshot then went to chatgpt for translation😊 Point 1"Although the advertisement is good, it is often not sufficient to fill out after adding it."
am i reading the same document as you? i couldn't pull any of these insights from the gemini guide. i am even having hard time locating any of your mentioned tips. you rock, jeff.
Great call out on leveraging LinkedIn for an edge in the hiring process. What are your thoughts on creating tailored LinkedIn profiles for different roles?
1. Continue what you are doing. Superb. 2. I ACTUALLY started using To-Doist and Notion JUST beacause of this and the Widget demo 3. In between sets thoughts hit different! haha
Hi Jeff! I am currently in college studying business administration. I am looking for internships or entry levels that are geared towards collaborative participation, Microsoft word, excel, problem solving, coding, etc. How would I begin? Do I need to make it more specific? Do I also need to redo my cover letter depending on what jobs I am applying?
