AI is reshaping work. But most professionals don't know where to start. Do you build an agent to improve your job search? Automate repetitive work in your current role? Or create a side project to generate income?
The Session
In this webinar, Albert of Albert's List walks through how professionals across different situations are using vibe coding and AI agents to move faster, land better roles, and create leverage. You'll see:- What "vibe coding" actually is (and why it works for non-technical builders)
- Why agents matter at work, and what they actually do
- Real examples: job seekers building search tools, operators automating workflows, builders shipping side projects
- How to pick the right path for your situation
This isn't a technical tutorial. It's a framework for deciding what you should build and why.
Who This Is For- Job seekers who want to differentiate themselves and move faster
- Professionals in roles who want to automate friction
- People interested in building a side project or consulting practice
What Happens Next
At the end, you'll vote on what you'd actually build. Based on community demand, we'll announce workshops and training in the areas that matter most to our audience.3 attendees

Most professionals already have the raw material for a strong personal brand. It is sitting inside their resume, LinkedIn profile, portfolio, past projects, presentations, client work, and career stories. The challenge is knowing what to extract, how to package it, and how to share it consistently.
In this Albert’s List webinar, we’ll explore how AI workflows can help professionals build visibility online without starting from scratch every week. Whether you are employed, between roles, freelancing, consulting, building a side hustle, or exploring your next move, a stronger personal brand can help others understand your expertise before they ever meet you.
We will demonstrate how tools like n8n and ComfyUI can help transform existing career assets into LinkedIn posts, short-form video scripts, content ideas, visual assets, audio concepts, and repeatable workflows.
Attendees will leave with a clearer understanding of how AI can support personal branding, career visibility, and opportunity creation in 2026.1 attendee

https://www.eventbrite.com/e/3-hours-to-research-intelligence-build-your-first-ai-agent-tickets-2000234783081?discount=MEETUP&keep_tld=trueYou're either looking at a company to join, or you're trying to understand what your competitors are doing. Either way, you're researching blind—reading scattered reviews, googling company news, checking LinkedIn. It takes forever and you miss things.
Stop doing this manually.
In this workshop, you'll customize and deploy a working AI research agent in 3 hours. Fork an existing competitive intelligence agent, wire in your own data sources (RSS feeds, APIs, whatever's available), and run it. Feed it a company or industry keyword. Get back structured intelligence: recent news, hiring patterns, market positioning, gaps, red flags.
What you'll actually do:- Clone a working competitive intelligence agent from GitHub
- Add your own custom data sources (RSS feeds, open APIs, etc.)
- Test it live on a real company or competitor
- Walk away with a deployed agent you can run 100+ times
Two use cases, one agent:
- Job Seeker Mode — Research a company before you apply, interview, or accept an offer. Understand growth, hiring, leadership, red flags.
- Competitive Mode — Understand what competitors are doing, market gaps, hiring trends, strategic moves. For employees and side hustlers.
What you need before the workshop:
- 10 min of pre-work (optional, but recommended): Clone the GitHub repo, set up your API key, test it runs
- A laptop with a browser (Claude.ai)
- Basic comfort with Claude—you should already be asking it questions and iterating
After the workshop:
- Post-work recap doc: What you built, how to iterate, advanced techniques, troubleshooting
- Optional upsell: Advanced agent techniques course (separate paid offering)
This is NOT:
- A tutorial on "how to use AI"
- A guide to corporate strategy
- A tool for stalking or privacy violations (we cover ethical guardrails)
Price: $17–27 (one-time, includes materials + post-work doc)
Pre-work is optional. If you complete it, you'll hit the ground running. If you skip it, no problem—we'll set up during the first 20 minutes.1 attendee
