How to Use AI to Strengthen Your Job Search

# Have you submitted countless applications without receiving a response?

Do you struggle to tailor your résumé to different roles?
When you finally receive an interview invitation, are you unsure how to prepare?
AI can help you write a résumé, but the real value lies in knowing how to make AI understand your background, analyse job requirements and support more targeted preparation.
On 31 July, we are hosting an AI-powered job search meetup at UNSW. Lightman, Founder and CEO of JR Academy, will deliver a live demonstration, while four additional guests will share practical insights into AI applications, the Australian job market and career planning.

See how AI can help you:

• Search for and filter suitable job opportunities
• Analyse the match between a job description and your experience
• Tailor your résumé to different roles
• Simulate interviews and prepare for common questions

This is more than a discussion about AI—the complete workflow will be demonstrated live.
