This is an Audio Edition episode—originally published on YouTube and optimized for audio listening.Renee Romero is a Senior UX/Product Designer who was laid off from a government role. Like a lot of job seekers right now, she hit the wall: the market felt brutal, job boards felt chaotic, and she was spending an hour and a half tailoring a resume for a single job… without getting traction.So she built an agentic AI job search system using n8n, Notion, and Claude that automates the exhausting parts of the search: Finding roles, scoring them for fit, matching referral contacts to new openings, and personalizing applications. It helped her go from tracking 10 companies to monitoring 55, cut her app personalization down to about 15 minutes per role, and saves her 5+ hours a week in the job search (and a boatload of energy!).The best part? She’s not some engineer or something with a ton of technical experience. In fact, she self rates her technical expertise as a 2 out of 10 in the video.In this video, she breaks down exactly how it works so you can steal the framework to automate your job search and win back your energy.🤝 *CONNECT WITH RENEE*Renee is sharing her journey on LinkedIn and documenting her work via case studies on her site.

This is an Audio Edition episode—originally published on YouTube and optimized for audio listening.Does networking make you anxious? This video will completely reframe the way you see it.

This is an Audio Edition episode—originally published on YouTube and optimized for audio listening.Your LinkedIn headshot might be the reason you’re not getting job interviews. Recruiters spend more time looking at profile pictures than any other part of your LinkedIn profile. And those images give them a first impression that lasts. In this video, I’ll show you how to use Google AI's image model to instantly turn an ordinary selfie into a professional, photorealistic LinkedIn headshot (no expensive photographer required). You’ll learn how to adjust lighting, backgrounds, and wardrobe using AI tools to create a recruiter-ready profile picture that boosts credibility, trust, and helps you land more interviews.Note: When using AI to edit your headshot, the goal is to maintain the authenticity of the picture. You should be confident that the final product looks and feels like “you.” Too many edits will make the picture feel too “AI” and can make the picture look less like the real you, both of which will hurt more than they help.📥 *FREE HEADSHOT PROMPT EXAMPLES*Hit the link below to grab examples for each part of my prompt formula along with an example of a fully fleshed out prompt for optimizing resume bullets (for free):→ https://AustinBelcak.com/Headshot🛠️ *VIDEO RESOURCES*Google AI Studio: https://aistudio.google.com/prompts/new_chatPhotofeeler: https://photofeeler.com🚀 *READY TO LAND MORE INTERVIEWS & OFFERS?*Our client Becky was struggling to gain traction in her job search.
