Variables to fill

VariableWhat to enter
{target_role}The exact job title or role family you are targeting, not a vague industry.
{experience}Years, domain, tools, scope, teams, channels, or projects you can truthfully discuss.
{achievements}Measured outcomes, shipped projects, process improvements, awards, or concrete examples.
{constraints}Length, tone, market, deadline, privacy limits, ATS needs, or claims to avoid.

Recovery roadmap

Ask for a 7-day stabilization step, a 30-day application sprint, and a 60-day networking plan so the answer is not just resume advice.

Positioning reset

Require the model to translate your strongest wins into target-role language without exaggerating scope, seniority, or numbers.

Outreach scripts

Generate short recruiter, alumni, and former-manager messages with placeholders you can personalize before sending.

EvidenceWeak or unsupported claims are marked for editing instead of being presented as facts.
PrivacyPrivate employer data, personal identifiers, and confidential business details are removed.
Final fitThe tone matches the job market and does not sound like a generic AI draft.
Safety note: Do not ask the AI to invent employment dates, references, credentials, certifications, or severance/legal advice. Use the output as planning support, then verify every claim before sending applications.
