Resume Tailor

Stop sending the same generic resume to every job. This skill analyzes any job description and rewrites your resume with the right keywords, skills emphasis, and bullet points to pass Applicant Tracking Systems and catch a recruiter's eye. Built for job seekers who want to stand out in competitive applicant pools without spending hours rewriting from scratch.

What it does

• Keyword extraction scans job descriptions to identify the exact terminology and technical requirements recruiters prioritize.
• Achievement reframing transforms generic task lists into quantified results using the Challenge-Action-Result (CAR) framework.
• Match scoring provides a side-by-side comparison of your current skills against the job requirements.
• Gap analysis identifies missing qualifications and provides scripts to address them in interviews or cover letters.
• Interview preparation generates targeted practice questions based on the new highlights in your tailored resume.

How it works

1. Provide your current resume text and the target job description.
2. The skill audits your history to find transferable skills and relevant accomplishments.
3. It generates a tailored summary and reorders experience bullets to lead with the most relevant impact.
4. Review the "What Changed and Why" report to understand the strategic adjustments made for the ATS.

Frameworks & tools

This tool uses standard recruitment logic compatible with major ATS platforms like Workday, Taleo, and Greenhouse. It outputs clean Markdown text designed for easy export to .docx or PDF.

Why this beats prompting it yourself

Generic prompts often result in "hallucinated" experience or keyword stuffing that looks suspicious to human recruiters. This skill follows a strict "truth-only" logic, ensuring every bullet point remains factual while maximizing its relevance to the specific role.

Use cases

• Optimizing a general resume for a specific high-priority job application.
• Pivoting industries by reframing existing experience into transferable skills.
• Updating an old resume with modern, results-oriented language and quantification.
• Preparing for interviews by identifying the most impactful stories in your background.

Known limitations

This skill focuses on content and structure rather than visual graphic design. It does not support image-based resumes or complex multi-column layouts that break ATS readability.
