About the event Laid off? Burnt out? Getting ghosted? Start here. The Open Door is a free, live session where job seekers come together to talk about what’s actually working (and what’s not) in today’s market. Each session features a guest recruiter or expert, but this is really about real conversation, shared experiences, and supporting each other. Cameras optional. No pressure. Just real talk. This month: Don Pippin, MHRM Don is a talent development professional, resume writer, and career coach who has supported 1,200+ professionals through career coaching, resume writing, personal branding, and interview preparation. We’re talking about AI, semantic search, and what it means for your resume. As AI changes how LinkedIn and recruiters search for candidates, exact keyword matching may become less important. Don will show us how semantic search works, how job searches are changing, and why telling real stories that demonstrate your impact may matter more than trying to copy every keyword from a job description. 📅 Wednesday, September 16 🕛 12pm PT 💻 Free + virtual 🎥 Cameras optional Register to get access.
