  • The Career Agility System is hosting a webinar on The New Search: How AI Tools are Deciding Who Gets Found on Thursday, October 15th, from 3:00 PM to 3:30 PM. Google search used to be the finish line. Now it’s often just the first stop. Buyers researching a consultant, hiring managers vetting a candidate, and prospects comparing options are increasingly asking AI tools directly: “Who’s the best person for this?” That answer gets generated before anyone opens LinkedIn, checks a website, or reads a resume. If you’re not part of what the AI surfaces, you’re invisible to a growing share of the people making decisions about your next opportunity, whether that’s a client, a role, or a partnership. This isn’t a future problem. It’s already reshaping how business owners get discovered and how hiring managers shortlist candidates, often without either side realizing the rules changed. In this session, candidates will learn how AI tools actually evaluate who to surface, why that’s fundamentally different from traditional SEO or keyword-stuffed profiles, and what specific, doable steps move you from invisible to recommended.
