Session Overview

Many professionals are beginning to use AI tools to write faster, prepare better, and organize their thinking, but often without a clear strategy for how those tools should support their career growth.

In this session of RISEUP Career Lab, Oluwole Egbesola and Deepak Bhootra explore how AI can become a career co-pilot when it is used with clarity, judgment, and intentional direction.

The discussion focuses on helping professionals understand how AI can support career reflection, communication, interview preparation, profile development, decision-making, and strategic planning while keeping human judgment at the center.

Instead of using AI only for quick answers or polished wording, this session introduces ways to use it as a thinking partner that strengthens clarity, articulation, and preparation over time.

The goal is to help professionals use AI more intentionally so it improves their career decisions, sharpens their positioning, and supports long-term growth without making their voice, judgment, or strategy generic.
