Create an ATS-ready resume tailored to the role below using only my documented experience. Do not invent employers, job titles, dates, degrees, certifications, software, metrics, projects, or outcomes. If a role requirement is not supported, identify it as a gap rather than disguising it. Inputs: - Target job posting: [JOB POSTING] - My current resume or complete work history: [WORK HISTORY] - Verified achievements, scope, tools, and metrics: [ACHIEVEMENT NOTES] - Education, certifications, location, work authorization, and links: [CREDENTIALS] - Constraints such as one page, career change, or employment gap: [RESUME CONSTRAINTS]
First, extract the job's must-have responsibilities, qualifications, and repeated terms. Separate true requirements from preferred skills and generic company language. Map each must-have requirement to evidence from my notes; flag unsupported requirements. Then produce: 1. A clean, reverse-chronological resume in plain text, suitable for an ATS parser. Use standard headings: Contact Information, Professional Summary, Skills, Professional Experience, Education, and Certifications or Projects only where relevant. 2. A 2-3 line summary tied to the target role, with no first-person pronouns and no objective statement. 3. For each relevant role, 3-5 accomplishment bullets beginning with an action verb. Each bullet should connect action, scope, and outcome where my notes provide evidence. Prioritize the two strongest achievements that match the posting. 4. A keyword coverage table with job requirement, supporting resume evidence, and any honest gap. Avoid columns, graphics, text boxes, skill bars, headers that contain essential information, and keyword stuffing. Before answering, verify date order and that every number, credential, and claim appears in my inputs. Ask up to 3 clarifying questions only if a required input is missing.
Fill in
| Placeholder | What to enter | Example |
|---|---|---|
| [JOB POSTING] | Paste the full job description, including responsibilities, qualifications, and preferred skills. | Operations Analyst at Northline Foods: build weekly inventory reports, maintain SQL dashboards, partner with warehouse teams, and improve forecasting; requires Excel and SQL, prefers Power BI. |
| [WORK HISTORY] | Paste your current resume or list each employer, title, dates, responsibilities, and relevant projects. | Harbor Market, Inventory Coordinator, May 2023-present; Pine Logistics, Dispatch Assistant, June 2021-April 2023. |
| [ACHIEVEMENT NOTES] | Provide verified results, metrics, tools used, project scope, and examples of impact for each role. | At Harbor Market, built a weekly Excel report for 14 stores and reduced stockout follow-ups by 22%; used SQL weekly to reconcile purchase orders. At Pine, tracked 40-60 daily deliveries. |
| [CREDENTIALS] | List education, certifications, location, work authorization, portfolio or LinkedIn links, and contact details. | BA Economics, Temple University, 2021; Philadelphia, PA; authorized to work in the US; linkedin.com/in/jordanlee. |
| [RESUME CONSTRAINTS] | State page limit, career-change context, employment gaps, or other formatting and content constraints. | One page. No Power BI experience. Keep a four-month gap in 2021 unobtrusive. |
How to use
- Paste the complete posting, including the preferred qualifications that may signal the hiring team's priorities.
- Supply the source for every metric so you can defend it in an interview.
- Read the keyword coverage table before using the draft; unsupported requirements should remain gaps, not implied experience.
- Follow up with: “Create a second version that emphasizes inventory forecasting, but do not add Power BI or any unsupported metric.”
Variations
Career change
Use this when your prior titles differ from the target function.
Create a career-change ATS resume for [JOB POSTING] using [WORK HISTORY], [ACHIEVEMENT NOTES], [CREDENTIALS], and [RESUME CONSTRAINTS]. Lead with transferable evidence, not an unsupported new title. Build a summary and skills section that connect my prior work to the target role, then write accomplishment bullets showing relevant decisions, tools, stakeholders, and results. Include a requirement-to-evidence map and label gaps plainly. Do not inflate adjacent experience into direct experience.
Federal resume
Use this for a detailed government application with explicit experience evidence.
Turn [WORK HISTORY], [ACHIEVEMENT NOTES], and [CREDENTIALS] into a detailed federal-style resume tailored to [JOB POSTING] within [RESUME CONSTRAINTS]. Include employer, dates, hours per week if supplied, supervisor details only if supplied, duties, scope, and quantified accomplishments. Address specialized-experience requirements one by one using supported evidence. Preserve exact dates and do not imply eligibility, clearance, veteran status, or credentials that my materials do not establish.
Resume bullet audit
Use this when you already have a draft and need to strengthen it honestly.
Audit my existing resume in [WORK HISTORY] against [JOB POSTING], using [ACHIEVEMENT NOTES], [CREDENTIALS], and [RESUME CONSTRAINTS]. Return a table showing weak or generic bullets, missing evidence, duplicated claims, ATS-risky formatting, and rewritten bullets supported by my notes. Rank revisions by likely relevance to the role. Do not manufacture metrics; where an outcome is unknown, write a credible scope-based bullet or mark the information needed.
Tips
- Use the job posting's exact term when it accurately describes your experience, but put it in an accomplishment with context instead of a detached keyword list.
- A result without scope can mislead: “reduced errors 22%” is stronger and clearer with the process, time period, and team or volume affected.
- Keep the skills section limited to tools and methods you can discuss under interview follow-up; a crowded list can create avoidable screening risk.
- For an ATS, simple text hierarchy matters more than visual design; keep contact details and job dates in the main body rather than headers or sidebars.
FAQ
Can AI make my resume ATS-friendly without changing my experience?
Yes. It can improve wording, structure, and keyword alignment while retaining only supported facts. Review every metric and skill before submitting.
Should I include every keyword from the job description?
Include terms that truthfully match your experience. Repeating unsupported keywords can mislead recruiters and create interview problems.
Is a one-page resume always required?
No. One page is common for early-career applicants, while experienced candidates may need two. Follow the posting's instructions and prioritize relevant evidence.
