[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Q: I’m guessing most people use AI to tailor their resume to match the position they’re applying to? Any specific AI you recommend? And what prompts are the best? Is it as simple as feeding the text of the opening and my resume and then let AI do its magic then review/update manually?[/quote]
bump for OP or anyone in the know[/quote]

I’m not a recruiter but I have been applying for jobs and getting interviews, and I use AI for this (and in my work too so I am an experienced user). I have a pretty long “master resume” that has more on it than I would want for each job, as it runs to 3 pages. It has more bullets for each part than I would actually use, so that I’m able to choose the best for each job. I upload that to my (paid!) ChatGPT or Claude, along with a link to the job description. Then I write something like: “suggest edits for the Key Skills section of my resume to align with this job description, but reduce to 5 bullets. Flag for me the changes you make that I need to confirm are accurate. Maintain my voice and style as much as possible”. Then it suggests changes and tells me things like “confirm that you have lead XYZ team. If not, then change to “zxy”. I do something like this for each section, and then have it re-review the whole thing to make sure there is no repetition, and that as a whole it captures all the key skills and experience required by the JD that I can demonstrate.
