Quick win: Use one prompt on one resume section instead of asking AI to rewrite the entire resume.

Prompt rules before you start

• Never paste sensitive personal information.
• Tell the AI not to invent metrics, credentials, tools, employers, or outcomes.
• Ask for questions before rewrites when the facts are thin.

Prompts to try

• “Find vague claims in this resume section and ask what proof is missing.”
• “List keywords from this job description that I can honestly support from my resume.”
• “Rewrite this bullet in three versions: plain, stronger, and interview-ready. Do not add facts.”
• “Identify any claim that sounds exaggerated or unsupported.”

Final human check

• Would you be comfortable explaining every line in an interview?
• Did AI add anything you cannot verify?
• Does the bullet sound like you, or like generic resume language?
