Step 1
Build Your Master Resume Document
Write your complete work history, achievements, and skills into a master document in Claude. Use it to ask: which accomplishments are strongest for tech roles? For leadership roles? Let AI help you organize.
Step 2
Analyze Each Job Description
Paste each job description into Claude and ask it to: extract the top 10 skills required, identify keywords to include for ATS, and flag any requirements you need to address directly.
Step 3
Generate a Tailored Resume
Feed your master document and the extracted job requirements into Claude and ask it to rewrite your resume summary and rearrange bullet points to align with this specific role.
Step 4
Write the Cover Letter
Use ChatGPT with the job description, company research, and your tailored resume to write a cover letter that connects your specific experience to their specific needs, not a template.
Step 5
Prep for the Interview
Ask Claude to generate the 10 most likely interview questions for this role, plus a STAR-format answer outline for each based on your actual experience.
Time Required
2–3 hrs setup, then 30 min per application
Expected Result
A personalized resume, tailored cover letter, and interview prep brief for each role, all generated in 30 minutes per application.
