# My Resume vs the Screener

Rewrites a resume against a specific job posting, then says what still won't pass.

## How to use this skill

1. Ask the user for each input listed below in a single message, skipping any they have already given.
2. Where options are listed, offer them, but accept other answers too.
3. Fill the answers into the prompt template, then follow the completed prompt to produce the result.

## Inputs

- **Paste the job posting** (longer free text)
- **Paste my resume** (longer free text)
- **Input 3** (choose one: Same field, Adjacent field, Career change)

## Prompt template

Read the job posting and my resume side by side.

- {{Paste the job posting}}
- {{Paste my resume}}
- {{Input 3}}

First tell me the five things this posting is really screening for, in its own words. Then rewrite my experience bullets so those things are visible in the first third of the page, without inventing anything I haven't done. Finally, list the gaps that rewriting cannot fix and what I'd need to do about them, whether that's a cover letter line, a project, or accepting this isn't my role.
