Garrett Rice, co-founder and CEO of Callings.ai, shares how his team is revolutionizing the job search process with AI-powered tools designed to help job seekers navigate an increasingly complex and competitive market.

Key Takeaways:

  • Garrett and his co-founder built Callings.ai out of personal frustration with the outdated job search process, aiming to provide an all-in-one platform for job seekers.
  • Today’s job market is more competitive due to remote work, global talent pools, and automated ATS systems that often reject resumes before a human sees them.
  • Callings.ai offers tools for resume customization, interview prep, networking outreach, and a central job tracking system—saving users time and reducing overwhelm.
  • The platform uses AI to semantically match job seekers to relevant roles and suggests improvements to increase their chances of success.
  • Job seekers often fail by not maintaining a full “funnel”—Garrett emphasizes the importance of volume and consistency in applications and outreach.
  • Callings.ai also includes a feature to help users discover their ideal job path, encouraging reflection and self-discovery through AI-assisted prompts.
