The big idea
If a professional gives you a day to shadow them, you have one shot to make an impression. AI can help you prep questions, dress code, and a follow-up that turns 'cool kid' into 'I'd hire them.'
How to use it
- Ask AI for 10 questions you'd never think to ask
- Ask AI what to wear (and what NOT to)
- Ask AI to draft a thank-you note for that night, not next week
- Ask AI to suggest a 1-page reflection to keep for college apps
Try it
Pretend you have a shadow day next week. Ask AI for 10 questions, an outfit, and a thank-you draft.
