  • How to add AI skills to your resume and stand out to recruiters
    2026/09/08
    In today’s episode of the From Dorms to Desks Podcast, we are diving into a topic that is on the minds of almost every recent college graduate: Artificial intelligence.Are you worried about AI replacing entry-level roles? You certainly aren't alone. According to recent data, a staggering 89% of recent and impending college graduates share this exact concern. But what if you could flip the script and use AI to make your job application irresistible to hiring managers? Drawing on expert insights from Monster.com career expert Vicki Salemi, we discuss why shying away from AI is the wrong move. Instead, leaning into it shows employers that you are versatile, flexible, and ready to embrace modern technology. With 1 in 8 resumes now featuring at least one AI term, it is time to optimize your resume and stay competitive in the job market. In this episode, we cover: The current AI job landscape: Why candidate anxieties are rising, and why recruiters actually view AI skills as a massive "green light" for entry-level talent. Highlighting real AI experience: How to move beyond overused buzzwords to showcase specific projects, quantifiable outcomes, and the real-world efficiencies you've gained by using AI tools. Prioritizing foundational tech skills: The top AI and Machine Learning (ML) tools employers are actively looking for right now, including Scikit-learn, TensorFlow, PyTorch, Keras, and Hugging Face. Contextualizing niche terms: How to thoughtfully back up your AI skills with context on your resume so that they translate into meaningful, results-driven conversations during your job interviews. Whether you are building your very first professional resume or updating an old one to jump-start your job search, this episode will give you the actionable advice you need to leverage your tech skills and land that coveted interview.

  • How to infiltrate the hiring machine and unlock the hidden job market
    2026/09/01
    Are you tired of sending your resume into a digital void and hearing nothing back? Do you have the degree, the internships, and the hustle, but still feel like you are working hard in the dark? In this episode of the From Dorms to Desks Podcast, we consider advice offered by career intelligence analyst Jim Stroud around the insider advantage that college career centers won't tell you about. Jim reveals the uncomfortable truth about the entry-level job hunt: the job market is not a meritocracy; it is a "relationship architecture." Listen in as we break down a highly strategic, counterintuitive move that will change how you enter the working world: working part-time in recruiting. We explain how stepping behind the hiring curtain teaches you exactly how jobs are actually filled, how to bypass the resume filter, and how to build a targeted professional network before you even need it. If you want to stop guessing and start navigating your career with an unfair advantage, this episode is for you. Key takeaways: The myth of meritocracy: Why following the traditional "architecture of success" often leaves students exhausted, and why effort alone is no longer sufficient without visibility. Clarity beats cleverness: Discover how recruiters actually read resumes. You will learn why the brain on the other side of the screen is filtering, not analyzing, and why simple, direct proof always wins over dense, academic language. The ultimate entry-level hack: Why taking a part-time role at a search firm or recruiting agency within your target industry (like finance, tech, or healthcare) is the ultimate way to infiltrate the hiring machine. Networking with context: How to completely reframe networking. Learn how to "dig your well before you're thirsty" by reaching out to professionals with genuine purpose rather than desperation. Building real resilience: How facing the specific pressures and rejections of the recruiting desk builds a quiet, calibrated confidence that you can use when you become the candidate.

  • Avoid these 4 post-job offer mistakes: Career advice for recent grads
    2026/08/25
    Have you ever thought that your job search ends the moment you sign your offer letter? Think again. In this episode of the From Dorms to Desks Podcast, we dive into the "white space" of the hiring process—the critical, often overlooked time between submitting your application, interviewing, and your actual first day on the job. For students and recent graduates looking to land entry-level jobs, your professional reputation starts forming the second you hit send on that very first email. Join us as we discuss how to navigate your "reputation runway" and build a foundation of trust that will carry you through your entire first year. We break down insights from top recruiters and hiring managers to help you avoid the most common communication pitfalls and turn potential missteps into career-building opportunities. Key takeaways and topics covered in this episode: The "submit and forget" trap: Why treating your job application as a one-click event shows a lack of care. We discuss why following up and showing consistent commitment separates candidates who want any job from those who want a specific job. Banish the generic follow-up: Sending a basic "it was great to meet you" note won't cut it. Learn how to write specific, memorable follow-up emails within 24 hours that reference unique parts of your conversation and highlight exactly what interests you in the role. Addressing the gaps: Don't just sit back after an interview. Discover how to actively engage with the hiring team to emphasize your suitability for the position while directly addressing any weaknesses or gaps identified during the interview process. Mastering the first 90 days before you start: The biggest mistake new hires make is going radio silent between signing the contract and their first day. Learn why you must schedule a focused discussion with your manager to clarify expectations, role priorities, and success metrics before you even walk through the door.
