]]> 2473 no Curiosity Is the New Career Advantage - Preparing for Work in the Age of AI with Liz Moran AI is everywhere in the headlines,  but what’s actually happening inside companies? In this episode of the Career Intelligence Podcast, Betsy Jewell talks with Liz Moran, Director of Academic Programs and Certification at SAS, about the gap between AI hype and the reality of adoption inside organizations. Liz brings a unique perspective, having spent more than two decades working across both higher education and industry. Before joining SAS, she served as Assistant Dean of Academic Programs at North Carolina State University, giving her insight into how universities and employers are both trying to prepare for the future of work. In this conversation, Betsy and Liz explore why curiosity and learning agility may be more valuable than specific technical skills, how companies are actually approaching AI adoption, and what that means for early-career professionals entering today’s job market. They also discuss the growing role of micro-credentials, the importance of data ethics and AI governance, and why professionals at every stage of their careers will need to rethink how they learn and adapt. What You'll Learn in This Episode Why the reality of AI adoption inside companies looks very different from the headlines Why curiosity is becoming a powerful hiring signal What employers actually mean when they say they hire for “potential” The challenges universities face in preparing students for a rapidly changing workforce How micro-credentials and short learning “sprints” may shape future career development Why understanding AI ethics and governance is becoming important across many fields We want to hear from you!

]]> 1707 no What Companies Look For (And Why Candidates Get Overlooked) with Melissa Cluver Why do strong candidates sometimes get overlooked? Many professionals experience hiring from the outside. They submit resumes, prepare for interviews, and try to present their experience clearly, but they rarely get visibility into how organizations are actually evaluating candidates and making decisions internally. In this episode of the Career Intelligence Podcast, Meredith Dinitz is joined by Melissa Cluver, a Senior Talent Business Partner at Kimberly-Clark who partners closely with senior leaders on talent strategy, leadership development, and organizational design. Together, they explore what organizations are really looking for beyond skills and experience, why strong candidates don’t always move forward, and some of the biggest misconceptions professionals have about how hiring decisions actually get made.

Melissa Cluver on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/melissa-cluver-03647891/ Why do strong candidates sometimes get overlooked?


Many professionals experience hiring from the outside. They submit resumes, prepare for interviews, and try to present their experience clearly, but they rarely get visibility into how organizations are actually evaluating candidates and making decisions internally.


In this episode of the Career Intelligence Podcast, Meredith Dinitz is joined by Melissa Cluver, a Senior Talent Business Partner at Kimberly-Clark who partners closely with senior leaders on talent strategy, leadership development, and organizational design.


Together, they explore what organizations are really looking for beyond skills and experience, why strong candidates don’t always move forward, and some of the biggest misconceptions professionals have about how hiring decisions actually get made.


By the end of the episode, you’ll have a clearer understanding of how organizations evaluate candidates and how to position your experience more effectively in the process.

]]> 1821 no The Power of Career Clarity with Meredith Dinitz and Betsy Jewell On this podcast, we often talk about hiring trends, market shifts, and tactical career strategy. But today, we’re talking about something more foundational - clarity. The kind that changes how you walk into an interview, how you evaluate your role, and how you decide what’s next. As we were recording, what really stood out to me is how similar the patterns are. Whether someone is just starting out or twenty years into their career, the details look different - internships versus leadership roles, first jobs versus restructures, but the root issue is often the same. When you don’t have clarity, you second-guess yourself. When you do, you move differently. So today, we’re each sharing a real client story and unpacking what was happening beneath the résumé, beneath the title, beneath the frustration.________________ Visit our website where you can find all episodes and show notes.
