Prompt: 'Write a 30-second elevator pitch introducing me, what I do, and what I'm looking for.'
3

Ask for two versions: one for a professional networking event, one for a casual conversation.
4

Practice saying it out loud, then ask the AI for feedback on making it sound more natural, not memorized.

Say your final pitch to a partner in class.
