ABOUT THIS EPISODE
AI can completely change how you write resumes, cover letters, and networking messages for biotech roles, but only if you use it properly.
In this episode, I show biotech professionals exactly how to use AI to improve applications and outreach without creating generic AI slop.
If you're spending more than 30 minutes tailoring each resume, you're wasting time. And no, you will not be blasting out the same AI-generated resume to every job. In this episode, you'll learn to use AI as a strategic tool to help you think more clearly, present your experience better, and align with what companies are actually looking for.
This episode covers the key takeaways from my full workshop, including:
- Going from job posting to a tailored resume and cover letter in about 10 minutes
- Picking the right AI models for different tasks (ChatGPT 5.1 vs Claude Sonnet)
- Understanding what AI agents are and how they differ from simple prompts
- Creating a strong base resume, then tailoring it to specific biotech job descriptions
- Keeping your own voice while still matching the language companies use
- Writing cover letters that connect your experience to a company's mission
- Crafting networking and outreach messages that actually get replies
- Avoiding AI hallucinations and generic wording that weaken your application
- Using more than one model to double-check facts and phrasing before you send
This system is designed for biotech professionals who want to apply smarter, get better results, and stop spending hours on each application.
