GetlyApplicant tracking systems do not reject candidates - formatting and vague bullets do. These prompts fix both.
Bullets
1. "Rewrite these duties as achievement bullets: verb + scope + metric. Max 18 words each, no adjectives, no 'responsible for'. [paste]"
2. "Take this job description and give me the eight exact keywords it screens for, then map each one to a bullet I already have."
3. "Tailor this resume to the role below. Do not invent employers, dates or numbers - re-order and re-word only. [paste resume, paste job]"
4. "Cut this resume to one page without losing a single metric: [paste]. Tell me what you removed and why."
Structure
5. "Build a 2026-safe resume layout: single column, standard headings, no icons, no tables, no header/footer text - as plain text I can paste."
6. "Write the summary line at the top: [role] + years + one metric + the domain I want next. 40 words maximum."
7. "List the skills section ATS systems parse for [role], ranked by what appears in the job posting, 15 items max."
Letters, LinkedIn, interviews
8. "Write a cover letter that opens with the problem the team has, not with my name: [paste job ad]. 200 words."
9. "Rewrite my LinkedIn headline so it states what I do and for whom, under 220 characters, no emojis."
10. "Turn this job posting into five interview questions with the answer they are fishing for."
11. "Give me STAR stories from this experience list - four stories, each under 120 words: [paste]."
12. "Draft a salary negotiation reply to '[number]' that anchors on scope, stays polite, and does not name a number first."
