The ATS Wake-Up Call: When the Job Search Playbook Stops Working

Image
Last year, when I found myself without a job, I didn’t know what an applicant tracking system was. Not really. I had heard the term “ATS” in passing, maybe in a webinar or an article, but it never felt urgent or relevant to me. I had built a career the traditional way. Relationships. Reputation. Strong experience. Clear results. When I applied for roles, I expected my background to speak for itself. It did in the past. And then it didn’t. After months of applying to roles I was not just qualified for but, in many cases, overqualified for, I had exactly one interview to show for it. One. That is the moment something shifts. You stop assuming it is timing or competition and start asking a harder question. What am I missing? That is when I was introduced to what I now think of as the wizard behind the curtain. The system I could not see was making decisions about whether I would even be considered. The ATS. What an ATS actually is and why it exists At its core, an applicant tracking syste...

The Why Behind "Redefined"

Image
To be honest, I didn’t set out to write a book. I set out to understand what happens when life suddenly asks you to start again. There’s a particular silence that follows change; it's the kind that fills the air after a door closes. Titles disappear. Emails stop coming. The calendar that once defined your worth becomes strangely empty. In that quiet, you start to hear a different question whispering beneath the noise: Who am I now? That’s where Redefined began. Not in a plan or proposal, but in the space between endings and beginnings, between who I thought I was and who I was becoming. I’ve spoken with people who’ve had to rebuild entire lives after layoffs, restructures, health crises, and personal losses. They were executives, creatives, scientists. People who had done everything “right.” Yet their worlds still shifted beneath them. What I learned from them, and from my own experience, is that reinvention isn’t really about starting over. It’s about starting truer to yourself....

Anthropic's Economic Report: AI Isn’t Replacing Jobs. It’s Rewriting Them One Task at a Time.

Image
The conversation about artificial intelligence and the future of work is everywhere right now. Much of that conversation focuses on a single question: Will AI replace jobs? It turns out that question may be the wrong one.  The better question is: Which parts of our work are machines beginning to do? A recent labor market analysis from Anthropic offers one of the clearest looks so far at how AI is actually being used across the economy. Researchers analyzed millions of real interactions with their AI system to understand how people are applying the technology in their daily work. What makes this moment different from past technological shifts is the speed. Adoption is happening across industries in months, not years or decades. What they found is both reassuring and disruptive. AI is not primarily replacing entire jobs. It is replacing pieces of them. That distinction matters more than most people realize. Jobs Are Bundles of Tasks Most jobs are not a single activity. They are colle...
