A quick introduction

The human behind the screen

Job hunting can make you feel invisible. Not in a spooky, invisibility-cloak way, but in a “my application vanished into the void” sort of way.

A CV tells you what someone has done, but not who they are. And now that AI can polish a CV in seconds, well-crafted phrasing has lost its edge. When everyone uses the same blueprint to say the same things, applications start to blur together, and recruiters struggle to find the human behind them.

So how do we work with AI and still stand out?

I called this website Unadvertised because not every opportunity starts with a job ad. Sometimes it starts with an introduction.

Unadvertised gives that introduction more colour and more context. Instead of sending another document to the bottom of the pile, you share one link where someone can hear how you sound, see how you think, and explore what you can do.

One link for your emails, your LinkedIn DMs, or your networking QR code. Try Unadvertised. Let me know how your next introduction goes.
