Returning inflation, AI-based layoffs, global uncertainty, and declining consumer confidence—amid sky-high demand for AI-centric roles—are dominating the job market. As we get into the second half, where do things stand?
We'll discuss:- Our predictions for 2026 and how they look so far
- Which industries are hot and which are not
- Where AI is affecting the job search, and where they aren't
- Tactics that still matter in an uncertain market
- Upcoming Albert's List events you can attend to help your job search
- And much more!
Whether you are employed and looking for a new role, or out of work and looking, this webinar will have resources and ideas you can use to create a meaningful job hunt for the rest of the year.

In this hands‑on session, you’ll use Claude to build a job hunt agent that actually saves you time instead of creating more busywork. You’ll learn how to set up focused channels for targeting roles, researching companies, and tailoring outreach, then wire in various APIs so your agent can pull fresh job postings and context on demand. We'll learn how to have a reusable channel setup and prompt patterns you can run weekly to keep your search organized, personalized, and mostly on autopilot.Build an AI agent that job hunts while you sleep.
AI agents are an emerging way to automate parts of your job search, from sourcing roles to drafting outreach, so you spend less time grinding and more time in real conversations.
In this beta, hands‑on workshop, you’ll follow a guided build to assemble a prototype “Job Search Copilot” using Claude. Rather than promising a polished, one‑click agent, we’ll focus on helping you understand the building blocks: structuring prompts and tasks, wiring simple workflows, and tailoring behaviors for your role or niche.
Because tools and setups vary, not every participant will leave with a perfectly running agent in their own environment. Instead, you’ll leave with:
- A concrete mental model of how AI agents support a job search.
- A copy of the instructor’s working example project you can study and reuse.
- Templates, code snippets, and a step‑by‑step guide you can revisit after the session to get your own version fully working.
- No prior technical experience is required, but you should be comfortable installing software and copying commands. If you hit environment issues during the live session, we’ll provide ways to follow along using prepared checkpoints so you can still absorb the patterns and process.
This session will be recorded. All registrants receive:
- The recording.
- Links to the example project.
- Written setup instructions and troubleshooting tips.
- Whether you’re a jobseeker, career coach, or a professional curious about operationalizing AI in your workflow, this workshop is designed to give you a realistic, experiment‑ready starting point, not a finished product.
What you’ll walk away with
- A reusable blueprint for building simple AI agents with modern tools.
- A prototype “Job Search Copilot” project (or access to a working example) that you can refine after the workshop.
- Practical patterns you can extend to other use cases beyond job hunting.
Finally, this session will be recorded. If you sign up and cannot make it, a recording will be sent to you.
