The New Job Search Handshake: How AI Really Works in 2026

Описание: The job search handshake has changed — and it’s no longer about a firm grip or a polished résumé.

In this episode of Careering with Cameron, Kevin Cameron breaks down what the modern handshake really looks like in 2026: AI-powered job search — and how to use it without losing control of your story.

As more companies rely on AI screeners, autonomous appliers, and talent pipelines (often before a job is even posted), job seekers are left wondering:
-Why am I getting rejected before a human ever sees my résumé?
-How do I use AI without sounding like a bot?
-How do I get past AI and in front of real decision-makers?

In this episode, you’ll learn how to:
-Define your AI agent’s mission so it works for you
-Set the right filters (salary, level, location, role families)
-Build machine-readable documents that reflect your real skills
-Choose the right AI tools (appliers, scouts, profile optimizers)
-Keep human guardrails in place to avoid AI mistakes
-Track success using interview rate—not application volume
-Combine AI strategy with old-school networking that still works

AI isn’t replacing you — but how you use it will determine whether you’re seen or skipped.
