The Big Themes:

• Cool technology, but: You don’t want AI bots running your show. Many companies are defaulting too quickly to technology. “Old-fashioned” personal engagement is essential.
• Looking for the rising star: Companies want aggressive young talent that they can mold into the leaders of tomorrow.
• Companies are not giving them the chance: Because companies have employees with more practical experience, they’re not getting younger people into the fold.
• You’ve got to do your own homework: Your LinkedIn profile and your social media sites are important. But you need some coaching with your manager or other friends and then tailor your resume to specifically do those things.

The Big Quote:

“I believe in relationships. I believe in market intelligence, I believe in competitive intelligence.”
