At some point in your career, you will be asked how you’ve used AI.

Most candidates will talk about optimizing resumes or practicing interview questions, but what if your answer could be more memorable?

In this episode, I share a deeply personal story about saying goodbye to my beloved cat, Amy Farrah Meowler, and how I turned to ChatGPT for guidance during that difficult time. What I learned goes far beyond grief. It demonstrates how authentic personal experiences can showcase your problem-solving skills and set you apart in today’s competitive job market.

Whether you’re searching for a new role, pursuing a promotion, or looking to clarify your career direction, you’ll discover how to reframe unique experiences with technology into compelling interview responses that highlight creativity, resilience, and leadership.
