Pre-AI, learning from the bottom up was invaluable—doing the smaller, lower-level work truly helped you understand how the business actually operates, built empathy for coworkers, and developed strategic thinking. I started in recruiting coordination, booking interviews for a year. That hands-on experience gave me a sharp eye for scheduling, pipeline management, and supporting coordinators ever since. With AI reshaping work, I'm curious: what will be the new equivalent of these foundational experiences?

I'm back with some thoughts and outcomes I arrived at: pre AI, grinding on small stuff - booking interviews, chasing updates, making conten - was how we learned the real things. We felt the gaps and the human chaos no manual covers. It made us, us. Like quiet literally that's ho we learned things - by doing actual grunt work. now that ai is slowly staking up our grunt work, I feel (these things will help us / are going to be our foundational reps in this ai era): - Getting our thoughts clear. If we can’t explain it simply, we don’t get it. - Writing AI prompts that is clear, specific and has context (for the job). - Writing down how stuff really happens. Smh connected to the first point. - Being the glue between tools, people, AI (and Catch what others miss) I feel bottom rung isn’t about doing anymore. It’s about understanding, explaining (and being the glue between the tools). Hard but we'll adapt haha
