Contents references/resume optimization.md Full resume optimization report template and ATS checklist references/cover letter.md Cover letter template and breakdown references/interview prep.md Interview preparation guide template Workflow 1. Identify the task type: resume tailoring, cover letter generation, interview preparation, skills gap analysis, or application strategy. 2. Gather inputs from the user: current resume, target job posting, optional LinkedIn profile, career goals, and any constraints. 3. Analyze the job posting. Extract: Required skills, preferred skills, years of experience, technical and soft skills, education, certifications, and tools. Keywords: industry terms, technical jargon, action verbs, company values, role specific language, and ATS keywords. Culture signals: work style, values, environment (startup/enterprise/remote), leadership style, and team dynamics. 4. Score the candidate against requirements. Mark each requirement as met, partial, or a gap. List keywords missing from the resume. 5. Produce the requested deliverable using the matching template: Resume optimization: rewrite summary, experience bullets, and skills section; quantify achievements; address gaps; run the ATS checklist. See references/resume optimization.md. Cover letter: open with hook and position, match 2 3 key requirements with metrics, show company research, close with a call to action. See references/cover letter.md. Interview prep: generate likely technical and behavioral questions, deep dive topics, questions to ask, and a pre interview checklist. See references/interview prep.md. 6. Verify output quality before delivering. Confirm it matches requirements closely, uses exact keywords naturally, quantifies achievements, shows cultural fit, stays ATS friendly, tells compelling stories, and is error free.
