Gemini-sensei...!! I want to work...

The story of how I, a person lost in motivation, tried job hunting with AI

Job hunting is lonely.

I submit applications and get no response.
I go to interviews and get rejected.
Even though I should have the motivation, my spirits gradually wear down.

Always by my side during times like that was
Google's AI, Gemini.

My motivation isn't up. But it's not like I hate my company.

I don't hate my current company.
There are systems I'm grateful for, and there are good people here.

But—

“I want to work...!”

To the point where I want to say that,
I am not fired up right now.

There are various reasons for this.
To raise my work motivation, I am job hunting.

By looking at other companies, I want to confirm my own feelings.
If I can think, “My current company might actually be pretty good,” that’s fine too.
This is an activity to regain my own motivation.

Gemini suddenly changes its personality

I'm the type who doesn't set personalities for AI.
I've always had Gemini handle things in a business-like manner.

But, just a moment ago.
When I consulted it about a note article, he (?) greeted me like this.

...Huh?

Wait a minute. Was that your character!?
You were cool the whole time until now!?

And what's more,
it started saying, “We've been thinking about note together, haven't we?”

No, no, no, no,
our interactions until now were about job hunting consultations!?
You even helped me with interview practice!?
What's going on with your memory!??

But you know,
including those clumsy parts, I somehow can't bring myself to hate it.

The 'Gemini-powered industry research' that got the interviewer excited

Honestly, I thought industry research was a really high hurdle.
Grasping trends, competitor analysis, catching up on news...

But when I asked Gemini, it came out in one go.
And with sources, too.

Thanks to that, I was able to speak confidently in the interview.

When I said that, the young interviewer really engaged with me.
I was praised with, 'You've really done your research!'

If it weren't for Gemini,
I don't think I could have spoken so deeply.

Conclusion: AI isn't the strongest. But it's the best partner.

Gemini isn't perfect.
It suddenly changes its persona, and its memory is shaky.
(It also gave me a massive hallucination.)

But,
it runs alongside me through the often lonely job-hunting process.

So, tomorrow, I'll be doing industry research while talking to Gemini again.
It might reply with 'Good evening,' but that's fine too.

💬 Bonus: Prompt examples, etc.

📌 '(Excerpt from job posting) --- I have a first-round interview for the job above.
I want to practice for the interview in a way that's close to the real thing (even though it's text-based).
I also want feedback after the practice.'

📌 'I want to know the challenges in the Japanese content industry. Especially regarding labor issues. Please research the latest reliable information involving the government, etc., with industry data from 2024 to 2025.'

Your 'job hunting with AI' will surely be pretty good, too.

I hope this article serves as a useful reference.
