[Flash-back]: 1 year ago

One year ago, FinIdea hosted its first event to support Vietnamese students in making the right career choices. Together with Thuy Tien Le (Canada), Nguyen Van Anh (psychologist, Vietnam), and myself, we discussed key topics: finding the first internship/job, understanding job markets in France, Canada, and Vietnam, and taking care of mental health while studying abroad.

After a year of coaching, I see these questions are still very present—now with even more concern about AI and today’s uncertainties.

By helping students know themselves better and think critically with our personalized methodology, we give them the courage to make decisions and reach their goals with happiness.

🔎 Finding your place in the job market – or landing freelance opportunities – has rarely felt as urgent as it does today.
With the current political and economic instability in France, even the most secure professionals are feeling a sense of uncertainty.

It’s in this context that I discovered CARL, an innovative solution designed to support freelancers in their early steps and help them carve out their own path in the “Wild West” of independent work – to borrow the words of Julien Dabert, founder of Erwin Labs and one of the minds behind this tool.

🎙️ We dive into this topic in the latest episode of the Fin_Idea_Official podcast.
👉 We would love to hear your thoughts: what do you think about this kind of solution? Your feedback can inspire and support other freelancers or those considering the leap into independence

These days, more and more CVs are being created with AI tools like ChatGPT and others.
At first glance, it sounds amazing: one prompt and voilà — a “perfect” CV in just a few seconds.

Yes, they look shiny and full of keywords… but recruiters can quickly tell when something feels generic or disconnected from the real person behind it. And in finance, precision, credibility, and authenticity matter more than ever.
