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

Hey Reader Earlier this week, I shared a quick update about the book I’m reading, and honestly? I figured it might get a couple of likes, maybe a comment or two. But what I got was completely unexpected. The post blew up—not just with comments, but with real recommendations. People weren’t just dropping titles; they were sharing books that actually matter to them. Stuff that’s making them think differently, work smarter, or just see the world in a new way. Fiction, nonfiction, deep dives into...

Hi Reader This Tuesday, I had a fantastic conversation with Marianna Inozemtseva, LinkedIn strategist and founder of Linkifyo, about a topic that more of us should be thinking about long before we need it: building your personal brand. I remember myself in my corporate days only dusting off my LinkedIn profile when I was job hunting or plotting my next career leap. But, like for many in a similar situation, by then, the game is already in motion—and you’re starting from behind Marianna and I...

Hi Reader Startups are messy. Add government clients, multiple time zones, and a major leadership transition, and you’ve got a recipe for drama. But that’s exactly the situation I walked into when I was asked to help mediate at a B2G startup selling complex software in emerging markets. When the “Perfect Fit” Isn’t Enough On paper, Jim looked like a dream hire. A young, energetic executive with a proven track record in complex sales. The founder, ready to step back, handed over the reins and...
