Quickly Tune your Résumé to the Opportunity - you can easily and quickly adjust to the specifics of a new role, with a few modifications. The key is: understanding how to work with AI. “It’s what you learn after you know it all that really counts,” according to basketball legend, John Wooden. Here’s how you can learn to bring your talents to life, with guidance from ChatGPT (and other AI platforms).

Step 1: Write A Great Summary

You can turn your résumé summary in to a powerful representation of your skills and talents. A sample prompt, before you feed the bot your CV: “Based on this original summary, and the following resume, create an improved and high-impact summary for me. Include these desirable words and phrases, using data to support soft skills wherever possible, and optimize for both SEO and ATS keywords.”


 Remember, ChatGPT is like a blender. You have to put in the ingredients you want, to get the output you need. FlexJobs says, “AI won’t understand anything about your history that you don’t tell it.”

Step 2: Put bullet points in there

According to FlexJobs, ChatGPT or other AI systems can quickly transform your bullet points into coherent and supporting ideas. Give the bot some information about the size and breadth of your position along with a prompt similar to this one: "Create three to five succinct bullet points for my roles at [employer 1, employer 2, employer 3] using the data and numbers provided. Verify that the numbers correspond to the impact and that any adverbs are always supported.

Why ask ChatGPT support adverbs? Because it’s good writing, and it’s going to help you stand out with an employer! Consider that “hired a new team quickly” is not as powerful as saying you hired seven people in less than three months. See how the adverb is supported, quickly, by its disappearance? Size and scope matters, in a résumé - adverbs, no so much.

Step 3: Be Consistent

Have you ever seen a résumé that looks like it was written by three different people? Consistency counts. FlexJobs says that you can use AI tools to create a polished and uniform tone for your résumé. And using AI is a great way to ramp up your productivity.

Three of the many benefits of utilizing ChatGPT or other AI-based solutions to write your resume are time savings, consistency, and clarity. Furthermore, let's face it: in current competitive job market, when nearly all employers screen applicants using some sort of ATS analysis, having AI input on your resume may be just what you need.
