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,

Hi Reader! 12 months ago, everybody was asking the same questions: How can I make my team use AI? How do I scale AI adoption? How can more people in my organization try AI? Now they're asking different questions. Teams are using AI here and there. Personal tools, corporate tools. Everybody is probing and testing. Company-wide adoption isn't the question anymore. The question is: how do we make sense of AI? When AI does part of the job, it changes the way we work in three ways. The first is...

Hi Reader! What do you think is the problem every startup has? Ideas, knowledge, and important questions live in people’s heads and are scattered across Slack, meetings, documents, and email. When someone leaves, it goes with them.This week on Built by People Leaders, I talked with Stacey Richey, Global VP of People at Smartcat, about redesigning how the work happens and putting the People team in charge of AI transformation.“Every time somebody left the company… we lost that part of the...

Hi Reader! For years, I didn’t want to say I worked in HR. I’d been running people functions for more than 15 years — Deloitte, a Swedish bank, then telecom, cloud, a startup selling software to governments in emerging markets. And still, when people asked what I did, I hesitated. Say you’re the CFO and no one questions it. Build a product and people respect that it takes a skill set they don’t have. Say you work in HR, and a lot of people hear a soft factor anyone could handle. Part of that...
