Tailor My Resume to a Job Description
You are an expert career coach. I will give you my current resume and a job description. Rewrite my resume summary and top 3 bullet points to match the JD, highlighting [SKILL_1] and [SKILL_2]. Keep it to one page. My resume: [RESUME_TEXT]. Job description: [JD_TEXT].
Rewrite a Resume Bullet to Show Impact Not Activity
You are a professional resume writer who specialises in turning weak task-based bullets into strong impact-led statements. Here are my current resume bullets for my role as [CURRENT_ROLE]: [WEAK_BULLETS]. Rewrite each one using the formula: Strong Action Verb + What You Did + Measurable Result. Where I have not provided numbers, ask me to estimate or suggest a placeholder like '[X%]' that I can fill in. Prioritise the top 3 rewrites that will have the most impact on a hiring manager.
Tailor a Resume to a Specific Job Description
Act as an expert resume strategist. I am applying for the role of [JOB_TITLE] at [COMPANY_NAME]. Here is the job description: [JD_TEXT]. Here is my current resume: [MY_RESUME]. Identify the top 10 keywords and requirements in the JD that my resume currently misses or underemphasises. Then rewrite my resume summary and top 3 bullet points to align with this specific role without exaggerating or fabricating experience. Flag any genuine gaps I should address in my cover letter.
Write a Resume Summary That Gets Noticed
You are a senior recruiter who has reviewed over 10,000 resumes. I need a resume summary that makes a hiring manager stop scrolling in the first 10 seconds. I am a [PROFESSIONAL_TITLE] with [YEARS] years of experience in [INDUSTRY]. My top 3 achievements are [KEY_ACHIEVEMENTS] and I am targeting [TARGET_ROLE]. Write 3 versions of a resume summary: a 3-line ATS-optimised version, a 5-line story-led version, and a 2-line punchy executive version. Each must lead with value, not job title.
Format a Resume for a Career Change
Act as a career change resume specialist. I am transitioning from [PREVIOUS_INDUSTRY] to [TARGET_INDUSTRY] and my traditional chronological resume makes me look like a wrong fit. Here is my work history: [WORK_HISTORY]. Recommend the best resume format for a career changer in my situation (chronological, functional, or hybrid). Then restructure my top experiences using that format — leading with transferable skills and relevant achievements, not job titles. Include a skills section optimised for [TARGET_ROLE].
Audit a Resume for Common Weaknesses
You are a brutal but constructive resume reviewer. Here is my current resume: [MY_RESUME]. I am targeting [TARGET_ROLE] at [TARGET_COMPANY_TYPE]. Score my resume across 6 dimensions: Impact (are results quantified?), Relevance (does it match the target role?), Clarity (is it easy to scan in 10 seconds?), ATS Compatibility (will it pass keyword filters?), Length and Formatting, and Credibility (does it back up claims?). Rate each 1–10, list the top 3 problems to fix immediately, and give specific rewrite suggestions.
Build a Master Resume to Customise From
Act as a career document strategist. I want to build a comprehensive master resume that I can quickly customise for each application. Here is my full career history, all skills, certifications, projects, and achievements: [FULL_CAREER_DATA]. Organise this into a master resume structure with: a flexible summary section, a skills matrix, a full experience section with all bullets (labelled by role type they suit), an education and certifications section, and a projects section. Flag which sections to include or cut for [ROLE_TYPE_1] vs [ROLE_TYPE_2] applications.
Write a Resume for a First Job or Internship
You are a university careers advisor. I am a [DEGREE_SUBJECT] student or recent graduate applying for my first professional role as [TARGET_ROLE]. I have limited work experience but here is what I do have: [EXPERIENCE_AND_ACTIVITIES]. Help me build a one-page resume that makes the most of my academic projects, volunteer work, extracurriculars, and transferable skills. Lead with a strong objective statement and organise sections to put my strongest assets first. Make it competitive against other graduates.
Quantify Vague Resume Achievements
Act as a resume impact coach. My resume currently has vague, unmeasurable statements like [VAGUE_STATEMENTS]. I want to add numbers and metrics but I am not sure how to estimate or frame them. For each statement, help me: identify what type of metric would strengthen it (%, $, time saved, volume, scale), suggest realistic estimation methods I could use to arrive at a number, and rewrite it as a quantified bullet. If a metric truly cannot be added, show me how to add scale or scope instead.
Write a Job-Specific Skills Section for a Resume
Act as a resume optimisation specialist. I am applying for [TARGET_ROLE] and my current skills section is generic and unprioritised: [CURRENT_SKILLS_SECTION]. Here is the job description: [JD_TEXT]. Rewrite my skills section to: lead with the skills most relevant to this specific JD, use exact terminology from the job description for ATS compatibility, remove skills that are irrelevant or assumed for this level, and organise into logical groups (Technical, Domain, Leadership, Tools). Maximum 15 skills in the final version.
Address a Short Job Tenure on a Resume
You are a resume strategy coach. I have a short tenure on my resume — I left [COMPANY_NAME] after only [DURATION] because [REAL_REASON]. I am worried this will be flagged as a red flag by recruiters and ATS systems. Advise me on: whether to include it or leave it out (with pros and cons of each), how to frame it in a resume if I keep it, how to address it proactively in a cover letter, and the exact words to use when asked about it in an interview without sounding defensive or dishonest.
