Tailor your resume

Match a resume to a job description

Here's my resume: [paste resume]. Here's the job description: [paste job posting]. Tell me which of my experiences and skills to emphasise, what's missing, and which keywords from the posting I should include naturally.

Rewrite the summary section

Write three versions of a professional summary for my resume, targeting a [job title] role. Use this background: [paste your experience]. Keep each to 2-3 sentences, confident but not generic.

Tighten to one page

My resume is too long. Here it is: [paste resume]. Suggest what to cut or condense to get it to one page while keeping the most relevant, impressive content for a [job title] role.

Write strong bullet points

Turn duties into achievements

Rewrite these job responsibilities as achievement-focused resume bullet points using strong action verbs and quantified results where possible: [paste your bullets or describe what you did].

Add metrics to a bullet

Help me quantify this resume bullet: [paste bullet]. Ask me the questions you'd need (numbers, scale, outcome) to turn it into a specific, measurable achievement.

Fix weak phrasing

Review these resume bullets and flag any weak or vague phrases (like 'responsible for' or 'helped with'), then rewrite them stronger: [paste bullets].

Cover letters & LinkedIn

Draft a cover letter

Write a concise, specific cover letter for this job: [paste job description]. Use my background: [paste resume or summary]. Avoid clichés, show genuine fit, and keep it under [word count] words.

Write a LinkedIn headline & About

Write a LinkedIn headline and a short 'About' section for me as a [job title]. Background: [paste experience]. Make it first-person, approachable and keyword-aware for recruiters.

Interview prep

Predict interview questions

Based on this job description, list the [number] most likely interview questions, including behavioural ones, and a brief note on what the interviewer is really assessing with each: [paste job posting].

Practice the STAR method

Help me build a STAR-method answer for the question '[interview question]'. Ask me for the Situation, Task, Action and Result one at a time, then assemble a tight, specific answer.

Tailoring beats a generic resume every time

The single highest-leverage thing AI can do for a job search is help you tailor — most applications fail because one generic resume gets fired at every posting. Paste a job description alongside your resume and ask which experiences to emphasise and which keywords to include; many companies screen with applicant-tracking systems, so mirroring the posting's language (honestly) matters. Just as important: keep the facts true. Use these prompts to sharpen wording and surface achievements you'd undersold, never to invent experience you don't have.

FAQ

Will recruiters know my resume was written with AI?
Not if you edit it into your own voice and keep it truthful. AI is best used to tailor wording and quantify achievements; the content and facts should be genuinely yours.
What's an ATS and why does it matter?
An applicant-tracking system is software many employers use to filter resumes before a human reads them. Including relevant keywords from the job posting (where they truly apply to you) helps your resume get through it.
