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.

Contextual Stratification - Chapter 4: The Pattern

  Recognition Three stories. Three domains. One pattern. In physics, Newton's laws worked perfectly until we encountered extreme speeds and tiny scales; then we needed Einstein and quantum mechanics. In economics, Keynesian models guided policy flawlessly until stagflation revealed their boundaries; then we needed multiple competing frameworks. In psychology, behaviorism explained learning and habit until we confronted consciousness and creativity; then we needed cognitive science, neuroscience, and phenomenology. Each time, a framework that seemed universal turned out to be contextual. Each time, the breakdown revealed not a flaw in the theory, but a boundary; a transition to a domain where different rules apply. Each time, the response was the same: develop new frameworks for the new domains, then discover those frameworks have boundaries too. This isn't coincidence. This is pattern. The Pattern Everywhere Once you learn to see it, you find it everywhere. Medicine spent centu...

Conversations with Grok (Part 1): Introducing Agile Transportation System

Me: What do you think of agile Transportation System? Grok : It seems like you might be referring to "Agile Transportation System." Did you mean a specific system, like a company, a concept, or something else? I’ll assume you’re asking about agile transportation in a general sense—like how agility applies to transportation systems—and go from there. If I’ve got it wrong, just let me know! Agile transportation typically refers to a flexible, responsive approach to moving goods or people. Think of it as a system that can quickly adapt to changes—whether that’s shifting demand, unexpected delays, or new tech. In practice, it’s about efficiency and speed without sacrificing reliability. For example, logistics companies might use real-time data to reroute trucks around traffic, or cities could tweak public transit schedules based on passenger patterns. It’s all about staying nimble in a world where disruptions—like weather, supply chain hiccups, or even pandemics—can throw a wrenc...
