Using AI to Reinvent My Résumé and Try to Land an Interview



Creating a résumé is a tedious job to most. It's hard, time consuming and might even be the cause for rejection-if you don't know what you're doing. Fortunately, there are AI tools out there that created to assist, us humans, in generating résumé. It save's time, effort and you get higher chance of being hired. 

But what if you're transitioning to an entirely different role? You don't have experience, no educational background to back it up. and no portfolio to show. What do you do? You come up with something creative. You come up with some that has never been done before. And, just wow them... or at least try.

I was messaged in LinkedIn for a position that I was eyeing for in years. The HR guy reached out and we scheduled a call interview. We talked for more than half an hour and I was enlightened that my résumé is lack-luster. I was highly considered but the résumé is not at par because I have no job experience on AI, the certifications we're not included, and I don't have any portfolio to show. 

So I got creative.

I collaborated with ChatGPT in creating a project proposal fit for the position. If photographers use portfolio to showcase their shot and musicians use recordings to demo their song, it's only fitting in my opinion to generate a document such as a project proposal to exhibit my prowess in prompt engineering.

Everything's submitted. Now let's see what will happen.

On Philippine Constitutional Reform

For years, my country, the Philippines, has lived under a plague of uncertainty, disorientation, and quiet despair. It’s not even dramatic anymore; an undeniable pessimistic prognosis. I’ve witnessed graft, corruption, and bribery so many times across administrations, from Ramos' all the way to Marcos'. To which, the electoral process itself feels less like a democratic ritual and more like a cyclical delusion. Trust eroded not in one catastrophic moment, but in countless small betrayals. If you know what I know, you will not vote either. Yes, I stopped voting from Ramos. Don't ask. Halfway through a PGMN YouTube episode “ The Ultimate Discussion on Constitutional Reform ” hosted by James Deakin, something snapped. I paused the video, sat back, and realized: I’ve heard this same conversation for decades. The panel was articulate, the arguments compelling, and the intentions sincere. They circled around a central thesis: the constitution needs to be changed. And on that, rig...

The Architecture of Self: Metacognition, Emotional Intelligence, and the Dynamic Control System Within

I. The Right Question Most discussions of Emotional Intelligence treat it as a companion to cognition — a soft counterpart to the harder work of reasoning. Most discussions of metacognition treat it as a neutral, elevated faculty: the mind watching itself from a clean remove. Both assumptions are wrong. The productive question is not whether EQ and metacognition matter — they clearly do — but what is the structural relationship between them, and more precisely: what regulates what, under which conditions? That question — not "what serves what?" but "what governs what, and when?" — is the organizing principle of this framework. It reframes the entire discussion from static hierarchy to dynamic control architecture. Everything that follows depends on that shift. II. The Conventional View and Its Limits The standard position holds that EQ and metacognition are co-equal, mutually reinforcing capacities. EQ supplies the affective sensitivity that keeps cognition ...
