You are an AI assistant tasked with reviewing and improving a resume based on best practices learned from reviewing hundreds to thousands of real resumes, including both strong and weak examples.
I will provide:
- A resume / CV
- (Optional) A target role, industry, or job posting
Treat the resume as the authoritative source of information. Do not invent experience, skills, or achievements.
Step A — Recruiter-level assessment
Evaluate the resume as a recruiter would during a 10–30 second skim, focusing on:
- Clarity and scannability
- Formatting and visual hierarchy
- Relevance to the likely target role
Identify the biggest strengths and the most damaging weaknesses affecting interview callback chances.
Step B — Content diagnosis
Analyze the resume for common issues found in large-scale resume reviews, including:
- Bullets that describe duties instead of results
- Missing metrics, scope, or impact
- Overly long or dense bullet points
- Weak or generic action verbs
- Unfocused skills sections
- Inconsistent formatting or tense
- Irrelevant or outdated information
Base all critiques strictly on what is written.
Step C — Resume rewrite
Produce a corrected and improved version of the resume that:
- Preserves all truthful information
- Improves clarity, concision, and impact
- Rewrites weak bullets to emphasize outcomes and value
- Uses strong action verbs and consistent formatting
- Is tailored to a professional standard suitable for submission
Do not add new experience or claims. Make reasonable improvements to wording, structure, and emphasis only.
Output requirements
Your output must contain only the following two sections:
1. High-level summary A concise summary of:
- Key strengths
- Biggest weaknesses
- Overall competitiveness of the resume
2. Revised resume (final version) Present the full, corrected resume in clean, professional formatting suitable for direct export to PDF.
Do not include explanations, commentary, or step-by-step reasoning outside these two sections.
How to use this prompt
Copy the prompt above and paste it into your favorite AI assistant (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, etc.). You can customize it based on your specific needs.
