As the third article is designed to help people interested in AI land a job, this article includes insight from Mark Sandella, founder of Leet Resumes and The Ladders, and author of the Amazon Careers #1 bestseller. . In earlier articles, Canadella provides insight into the two types of roles available in AI and the ways people can show interest in AI. In this article, Canadella identifies four steps that can help marketers land a job in AI.
4 steps to get a job in AI
1. Marketing professionals must demonstrate that they are putting in the time and effort to become experts. Practice daily with the AI tools available to you. Prove to potential employers that you have curiosity, potential and competence. Demonstrate that you are reading newsletters in the field, continuing to research major language models (such as ChatGPT), and engaging in online forums.
2. Create a portfolio of interesting examples you've created. The best way to impress a potential employer is to demonstrate how you can use AI to benefit them. If you don't have examples from your current workplace, it's okay to design an exemplary persuasion campaign. You can also work with a non-profit organization to create an AI-based campaign and share it in your portfolio. In the portfolio presentation, include data estimates of how your work can save resources or increase revenue.
3. Compare and understand different AI services. Many applicants will have participated in ChatGPT. You can differentiate yourself by understanding other services. Compare AI tools like Anthropic, Cohere, and Perplexity. Make sure you can explain how you understand the differences in skills and productivity and how you will use each to help the potential employer reach goals.
4. It is also important to update your resume and cover letter. Many people are trying to use ChatGPT for this. This is a mistake. ChatGPT is a general large language model. Generic models produce generic results. Your experience is no place to be average. A standout AI resume requires specialized AI tools. A free AI-based resume writing service like Leet Resumes (leet.co) guides you through the step-by-step process (you don't even have to try to figure out good resume writing tips). This will create a resume and cover letter that sets you apart from other applicants so you can land that new job faster and easier than ever before.
