What are some new skills you're trying to achieve that are outside of the ones you were honing in your career? After a point of sending constant applications in, you realize the only real thing to do is wait for your time.

I've been trying to familiarize myself with as many AI platforms as possible. I'm hoping being able to demonstrate proficiency with them will make me a more attractive candidate. Every company seems to be looking for applicants with some level of AI expertise, so it seems foolish not to take advantage of the downtime to brush up on it.

Industry imposter here…How do you show progression on your resume when your internal levels changed, but the title doesn’t indicate a promotion to the rest of the workforce. (e.g. a senior product manger to a technology strategist)…It seems like a lateral move unless you were internal and knew it was a level 7 to level 8.
