I’ve spent my whole career having to sell myself. It’s never been harder than right now.
Founder, contractor, freelancer, whatever the label, the job behind the job never goes away. And a few months ago, I was back at it.
This time was different. The whole market is flooded with AI. Every application polished, every cover letter “optimised,” every profile humming with the same interchangeable voice.
I’ve heard the pain from both sides. Recruiters drowning in what one called a sea of slop, unable to tell who was actually real. Candidates doing everything “right” and still vanishing into the sameness. Employers seeing candidates who can’t walk the talk failing at the 1st interview. Frustration. Everywhere.
And it hit me – the tools sold to help people get hired are quietly erasing the one thing that actually gets them hired. Their voice.
I realised that across years of contracting, founding, and pitching myself, I’d built a workflow. Not a template, a process. It’s how I landed roles inside some of the most complex operations in the country: Running hospitality on the F1 pit straight, roles at the Australian Open, PM’ing $100M+ government programs, and at the Future Fund, Australia’s $300B+ sovereign wealth fund.
It never made me sound like everyone else. It made me sound sharper, more prepared, more like me. The process did the grind underneath: the research, the edits, the interview prep, the follow-up, the tracking. But it was time consuming. Relentless.
So I’m doing what I’ve done before. I’m building.
It’s called WroteItMyself. The same workflow, rebuilt for everyone who has to sell themselves.
It handles the grind: the company brief, suggested edits, prep for the interview questions you’re dreading, the follow-ups so nothing slips. You stay in control. You review, approve, or refine every edit. The output sounds like you, because it is you.
Built to back you. Not replace you.
The grind is on us. The voice is all yours.
When did you last read an application (or a profile) and instantly think: no human wrote that?
Preliminary sign ups are open : If you’ve ever felt yourself disappearing into the sameness, come get your voice back – there’s a “notify me” on the site. And a lil something coming for the day 1 crew. Link in the comments
