Setting the strategy for how a company shows up in AI-generated answers: which topics to own, which sources to earn citations from, how visibility is measured, and how content, PR and product teams are coordinated around it.
How long does hiring take?
Senior AI search roles average 67 days to fill. Posting where practitioners already look and publishing a salary range are the two fastest levers on that number.
