North Coast Job Seekers Meeting

Rethink the Resume:

Don't Let AI Make You Average

Speaker: Annette Garsteck

Join with other job seekers and a team of experienced advisors in our NCJS Job Search Troubleshooting Meeting to address issues YOU are facing in your job search.

AI has changed résumé writing forever.

Today, nearly every job seeker has access to the same exact tools to write, edit, and customize their résumé. The result? Hiring managers are seeing more polished résumés than ever before... and more that sound exactly alike.

In this practical session, Master Professional Career Coach and former Fortune 50 hiring manager Annette Garsteck shares how to use AI as a powerful assistant without allowing it to erase what differentiates you. You'll learn how to avoid sounding the same as everyone else, showcase your unique value, and create a résumé that clearly shows your impact.

If you are actively job searching or preparing for your next career move, you'll leave with practical strategies for using AI wisely and creating a résumé that opens doors.

Because the goal isn't to have the best AI-generated résumé. It's to have the résumé that gets you called for an interview.
