- think better

Anna Wintour's Former Assistants Share Their Best Advice for Starting in Fashion

🚨 I'm hiring right now. And I'm deleting a huge chunk of applications inside the first 10 seconds. Not because the candidates are bad. Because their profiles look fake.

📌 TLDR In 2026, bots, scammers, and nation-state actors are flooding every job posting. If your LinkedIn profile looks like one of theirs, you get swept into the same trash pile, no matter how qualified you are. Here's how to clear the 10-second test.

🔑 THE NON-NEGOTIABLE MINIMUMS

✅ A real photo of your actual face. Not an avatar. Not an AI portrait. Not a blank silhouette.
✅ LinkedIn identity verification — free, 5 minutes, instant signal you're human: https://www.linkedin.com/help/linkedin/answer/a1359065
✅ Your city, or at minimum your state. "United States" alone reads as a scam. Not every company is set up to hire in every state; payroll, tax, and legal nexus all matter.

🚫 INSTANT TURN-OFFS

❌ "Dear Hiring Manager" with zero customization
❌ Typos in the first sentence of your outreach
❌ Résumé claims that don't match your LinkedIn dates
❌ "Can we move this to WhatsApp?" — textbook scammer, blocked and done
❌ Bashing your last employer

The bar hasn't gotten higher. The noise floor has. Standing out in 2026 doesn't require a gimmick. It requires proving, in 10 seconds, that you're not one of the fakes.

Genuinely wigging out about AI taking my job. Like, actually losing sleep over it.

My grand strategy: pivot to OT/ICS and hardware. Hardware because AI doesn't have hands (yet?). OT/ICS because I assume people still prefer their facilities/cars/planes to not explode when the AI goes the extra mile.

Is it a good plan? Probably no. Do I have a backup? Also no.

Looking for some assurance I’m crazy and wrong or correct and doing the right thing.
