Resume & Cover-Letter Tailor for Claude

The problem

General resumes fail to clear Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) or capture a recruiter's attention because they lack specific keyword alignment and metric-driven proof. Applying with a generic CV means your relevant experience is buried under irrelevant details.

What it does

• Extracts critical keywords and priority requirements from a specific job posting.
• Rewrites passive job duties into metric-heavy Action + Context + Result bullets.
• Re-orders and re-weights experience to surface the most relevant wins in the top third of the page.
• Generates a matching cover letter that connects specific achievements to the employer's needs.
• Provides a keyword-match report identifying technical gaps and suggesting honest alternatives.

Why this beats prompting it yourself

Typical prompts often hallucinate experience or use generic corporate fluff. This skill follows a strict "honesty line" to prevent background check failures while applying recruiter-level logic to bullet construction. It ensures the output is ATS-readable and free of clichés like "team player" or "results-oriented."

Use cases

• Tailoring an existing resume for a specific job application to increase interview rates.
• Transforming a list of raw work notes into a professional, high-impact CV.
• Drafting a targeted cover letter that sounds human rather than template-driven.
• Auditing a resume against a job description to identify and address keyword gaps.

Known limitations

This tool will not invent job titles, dates, or skills you do not have. It uses placeholders in brackets when specific metrics are missing from your input.
