Most Jobs Are Filled Before They're Posted. Here's What to Do About It

AI can draft a resume. It can help translate one career into the language of another. What it cannot do, according to career development leader Candy Ho, is connect the dots of a life and help someone talk about themselves effectively in a room with another human being. The more overlooked problem is on the employer side. A rejected candidate who impressed the hiring team represents an open door most companies never walk through. Candy Ho says internal career centres within organizations are an emerging answer, and CERIC has recently published research on exactly that. The hidden job market is still real. Candy Ho's last three clients did not apply online. They conducted information interviews, showed up at networking events, updated their LinkedIn profiles, and were top of mind when positions opened. The long game is still the game. Topics: AI career coaching, hidden job market, career development, employer candidate relations, networking GUEST: Candy Ho Originally aired on 2026-06-05
