ChatGPT Knows Your Name—Do You Like What It Sees?


Hi Reader

A friend of mine was hired last week—because ChatGPT recommended him.

No kidding.

They didn’t dig through resumes. They didn’t network their way to him. They simply asked ChatGPT deep research to identify top candidates.

And my friend’s name came up.

That’s the world we live in now.

We used to worry about what showed up when someone Googled us. Then it was LinkedIn. And now? It’s AI.

Companies are literally asking large language models to assess us. To size up our digital presence. To recommend who’s worth hiring.

Here’s the real question:

Are you ready for that kind of visibility?

Try this little experiment:

Open ChatGPT and type in—

What do you know about [Your Name], and what are the pros and cons of hiring them for [Your Role]?”

It might feel strange at first, but give it a shot.

  • If the answer makes you smile—amazing. You’re doing something right.
  • If it’s crickets or confusing—don’t worry. But don’t ignore it either.

In this new landscape, your digital presence is your reputation.

🎯 That’s why I’m starting a 7-Day Personal Brand Challenge, starting May 26. It’s designed to help you show up—online and in the minds of hiring managers, colleagues, and yes, even ChatGPT.

By the end, you’ll have:

  • A profile that positions you as a top-tier hire
  • A repeatable system for creating and sharing content
  • A digital footprint that gets you found—by people and algorithms alike

Let’s make sure you’re not invisible in the age of intelligent search.

Cheering you on,

Daria

Hi Reader! According to MIT's State of AI in Business 2025 report, 80% of organizations are already using AI. And yet 95% are getting zero return on investment. I've been sitting with that number since November, when I started interviewing HR executives to understand what's actually happening inside organizations navigating AI transformation. Fifteen-plus conversations later — leaders across tech, financial services, healthcare, payroll, insurance, organizations from 150 to 220,000 employees...

Hi Reader! When I started as a manager, I loved it when people agreed with me. Oh no, I wasn't arrogant. At least, I didn't think so at the time. For me, it felt like confirmation. Like I was reading the room correctly, making good calls, earning trust. Then, a leadership program for a bank I'd invested real time and energy in failed. And in the aftermath, I found out that several people on my team had seen it coming. They'd had concerns. Real ones. And they hadn't said a word — because they...

Hi Reader, What is the most important leadership job right now? In my work with leaders, helping them build strong, engaged teams, I came to the conclusion that the most important leadership job today is to decrease complexity. Not accelerating adoption. Not even increasing capability. But reducing the noise. I was reminded of this in a recent conversation with Martin Beischl, VP of People and Culture, on the Built by People Leaders podcast. He shared his personal approach: "AI implemented in...
