This document summarizes a webinar about missing key components in job searches. It introduces the speakers, Ken Kuznia and Amy McAuliffe Cooper, and outlines Ken's presentation. Ken discussed how job seekers need to 1) get clear on what they want in their next job by making a prioritized list of requirements and 2) shift their paradigm to focus on solving company problems by selling their skills and value. Amy reinforced these points, noting clarity of goals allows one to empower others to help and that problem-solving and clearly stating one's value to companies provides more interview opportunities.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing Days
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

Artificial Intelligence for XMLDevelopment
In the rapidly evolving landscape of technologies, XML continues to play a vital role in structuring, storing, and transporting data across diverse systems. The recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) present new methodologies for enhancing XML development workflows, introducing efficiency, automation, and intelligent capabilities. This presentation will outline the scope and perspective of utilizing AI in XML development. The potential benefits and the possible pitfalls will be highlighted, providing a balanced view of the subject.
We will explore the capabilities of AI in understanding XML markup languages and autonomously creating structured XML content. Additionally, we will examine the capacity of AI to enrich plain text with appropriate XML markup. Practical examples and methodological guidelines will be provided to elucidate how AI can be effectively prompted to interpret and generate accurate XML markup.
Further emphasis will be placed on the role of AI in developing XSLT, or schemas such as XSD and Schematron. We will address the techniques and strategies adopted to create prompts for generating code, explaining code, or refactoring the code, and the results achieved.
The discussion will extend to how AI can be used to transform XML content. In particular, the focus will be on the use of AI XPath extension functions in XSLT, Schematron, Schematron Quick Fixes, or for XML content refactoring.
The presentation aims to deliver a comprehensive overview of AI usage in XML development, providing attendees with the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions. Whether you’re at the early stages of adopting AI or considering integrating it in advanced XML development, this presentation will cover all levels of expertise.
By highlighting the potential advantages and challenges of integrating AI with XML development tools and languages, the presentation seeks to inspire thoughtful conversation around the future of XML development. We’ll not only delve into the technical aspects of AI-powered XML development but also discuss practical implications and possible future directions.

Webinar Re-Cap
- 1. Webinar Re-capAre You Missing Two Key Components in your Job Search? Amy McAuliffe Cooper, ONWARD Career Advisor MBA, CPRW (Certified Professional Resume Writer) Content source: May 19, 2010 webinar provided by Jill Konrath & Ken Kuznia
- 2. About the Speaker, Ken Kuznia Created DigYourWork.com with the mission to inspire people to tap into what they really want and then teach them how to get it. 10+ years coaching with an executive search firm Direct experience working with hiring authorities to place job seekers into jobs, largely sales related
- 3. Ken’s Introduction Job Seekers today are scared, frustrated and often frozen. They tend to suffer from Selective Amnesia or the inability to try new things to implement change and create results. Additionally, job seekers often use passive, antiquated approaches to conduct their search and are ineffective in landing interviews and/or a job. Ken’s challenge: Try a new action or create a new habit. When advice is offered and you disagree, think about which piece might be true.
- 4. 1. Get Clear About What You Want What specifically do you want in your next job? Write freely about all the things you would like in your next job (salary, company size, location, hours, part-time or full, office, etc.) Leave nothing out! Make a list, leave nothing out, sort the list and filter down to the MUST HAVES which are non-negotiable Why? Allows you to establish a Target to better focus your efforts Recognize your target and communicate it to others Faster results are achieved when others know your goal Perception of Focus – you DO NOT want to come across as the “jack of all trades”; you want to appear FOCUSED Avoid ending up in a job you really don’t want
- 5. 2. Shift Your Paradigm Think Different and Act Differently Get yourself out of entitlement mode (it’s NOT about ME) Become a problem solver, focusing on Company needs #1 Frustration for job seekers is companies not getting back to them timely or at all. NEWS FLASH: It is NOT the company’s job to get back to you, it is YOUR JOB to show value the Company can benefit from and reasons WHY they will WANT to know/hire you. Become a Sales Person Your job when looking or a job is to identify your value. Sell how you can help the company solve issues. Communicate how your skills benefit the company. Become Empowered Selling your skills as a solution to corporate needs empowers you and will separate you from the pack of other candidates. (When Ken’s firm started selling candidates in this manner, the close rate went up 300%.) STOP Complaining, START asking Questions Change your mode to GIVE to GET
- 6. Amy’s Observations & Take-Aways Clarity will provide structure to your search. A clear goal allows you to empower others to help you find job opportunities, increasing your ability to succeed faster. Problem-Solve - Re-think your networking and job search approach. Clearly stating the value (skills) you offer to a company in need of talent will provide more interview opportunities. Be true to your own self and filter accordingly…do not force a fit or sell yourself as someone you are not. You may get a job but you may not achieve job satisfaction which may lead you back seeking sooner than you want.
