Own The Conversation - Issue 80
AI Skills Frameworks, monthly stats for Bot Jobs and kicking off our end-of-year blog series. It's Own The Conversation, Issue 80 - from Bot-Jobs.com
Hello conversation owners!
As we head towards the end of the year (although in non-linear AI-news terms, there’s still about 6-months to go…) it’s the perfect time to think back over the past 12 months and reflect on what you did, did not. What you set out to achieve and what you aim to achieve next year.
I was exceptionally pleased to see an AI-Skills framework launched by the UK Government, which recognises that there is a lack of AI-skills in the workplace and this needs to be fixed ASAP.
Also, for those of you who have a keen interest in Conversational AI in HR and Recruitment, specifically, I have launched a new newsletter called H.A.I.R. - AI in HR (get it?). It’s also deliciously ironic, seeing as hair isn’t something I would usually talk about… (IYKYK).

So, without further ado, let's dive in and Own The Conversation!
To another great week ahead,

Jobs
I’m now publishing a monthly update on what has happened on Bot Jobs over the last month. I thought it might be useful to share it here as well:
As you can see, November really picked up compared to October. There are now some fantastic opportunities coming up daily, so make sure you take a look and register for updates.
There are now three ways that I help connect job seekers to opportunities, and employers to Conversational AI professionals:
Bot Jobs… The original and largest job board dedicated to Conversational AI roles, globally. Register for job alerts and get the latest jobs straight into your inbox daily or weekly. Remember, readers of this newsletter get their first posting for free using “FIRST1FREE”.
Bot Jobs Talent Pool… Employers, by getting access to the Talent Pool, can get direct access to candidates without the hassle of advertising and screening applications. If you’re in the market for a new role, or even a conversation, then make sure your profile is up to date and that you turn on the “Display my profile to employers” option on your profile.
Bot Jobs Freelancers… As a freelancer, by joining us, you can not only showcase your skills with your free portfolio builder but also connect with businesses that value your expertise.
As a business member, you get to tap into a pool of talented freelancers ready to bring their unique perspectives to your projects. Plus, leave the hassles of administrative tasks to us - we'll handle the systems, processes, and payments, letting you focus on what you do best: creating and innovating.
Latest Blogs and Content
As we close the chapter on another year and gear up for 2024, we’ll be creating a year-end series of blogs. We'll reflect on the past, set focused goals for the upcoming year, explore vital skills, discuss networking strategies, and craft a roadmap to success. Whether you're starting your journey or a seasoned pro, this series is your guide to a thriving Conversational AI career in the New Year.
In this inaugural blog of our year-end series, we'll guide you through a structured reflection process. By revisiting your experiences and growth over the past year, you'll gain insights that will shape your path to success in the year ahead.
If you fancy writing a guest blog or there’s a certain question or topic you want me to cover, then feel free to get in touch.
Events to Attend: 2024 events
I’m curating a crowdsourced list of events to attend in 2024. 30+ events already listed. Are you running a meetup, webinar, summit or conference? Add your event here.
As always, if you want to add anything to the next newsletter (events/jobs etc.) then feel free to DM me on LinkedIn, Twitter, Instagram, TikTok and Threads.
Here’s hoping you have a great week.
Yours in AI,
Martyn
