Ep 110. Stop Sending Generic Pitches: AI-Powered Job Tailoring for Language Pros with Aparajita Sudarshan
Q: What should listeners do to stay competitive in AI-driven job searches?
Commit to continuous learning, prepare thoroughly for every interview, and use targeted tools to streamline CVs and cover letters, while leveraging AI as a productivity catalyst rather than a replacement for effort and skill.

After experiencing repeated job rejections and costly CV writers, Aparajita built tools to automate and tailor application materials, improving speed and relevance for each job description and reducing the energy drain of manual customization.
Ep 110. Stop Sending Generic Pitches: AI-Powered Job Tailoring for Language Pros with Aparajita Sudarshan
Q: Can you explain how your platform works and how it differs from generic CV writers?

Q: Can you give one concrete example of where AI has helped instead of hindered patient-side research?
AI speeds up platform development, enables semantic search to match patients with trials more efficiently, and helps present information in plain language, while needing to be designed with the patient in mind to preserve the human touch.

Q: What is your one action for listeners to implement to turn around lead generation this week?
Never lose a customer due to performance, and identify one scalable, low-cost method to acquire new customers, starting with channel marketing and partner referrals.
