Are you tired of spraying your résumé across hundreds of postings and hearing nothing back? Do you feel invisible to recruiters and overwhelmed by AI‑driven screening tools? Perhaps you're switching careers or re‑entering the workforce and don't know where to start. You're not alone. Many job seekers rely on hopes and outdated methods, then wonder why they're stuck in the "Black Hole" of online applications.

RALEIGH, N.C. - Sept. 4, 2025 - PRLog -- As artificial intelligence reshapes the hiring process, a team of career experts has released a timely new guide, Job Hunting in the AI Era: Practical Tips and Proven Strategies (Cedar Books, 2025). Written by Martin Brossman, Dana Gower, Dr. Justin Rose, and John M. O'Connor, this book provides step-by-step strategies to help job seekers stand out in a world where algorithms, applicant tracking systems, and AI-powered tools influence nearly every application.

"It's my job to communicate my value. It's not their job to discover it," said lead author Martin Brossman. "That principle is the heartbeat of this book."

I love this book!
AI is everywhere. Nowhere does it have a more direct impact than when it comes to the jobs market. Reading a book like this, you need to know: What's changed? What you should do and How to do it. This book covers it all! It is clearly written, drawn from deep experience and expertise yet everything is explained so that you can avail yourself of AI tools to get the job that best matches your skills. I know most of the authors and I have discussed with them, before, the impact of AI and yet, reading this I was drawn into the subject and their writing helped clarify my own thinking. I highly recommend it and I add one admonition: don't vacillate. Get it now! This field is moving fast and this is a manual you need to have on your phone, table and/or desk. - D.A.
