Starter prompt
Build a verified evidence set
Gather your current resume, portfolio, role descriptions, career-center guidance, deadlines, and notes about experience you can verify. Remove sensitive identifiers that are not needed for drafting.
Ask ChatGPT to distinguish explicit job requirements from preferences and to cite the evidence used for every fit assessment.
Create the tracker
Use the starter prompt to build one row per role with:
- organization and role
- deadline and source link
- required qualifications
- verified evidence of fit
- gaps or questions
- application status
- next action
- relevant contact or event
Keep a folder for each role so drafts, research, and submitted versions do not get mixed together.
Tailor without inventing
Review every resume bullet, cover letter claim, and interview example against your actual experience. Remove unsupported claims and keep gaps visible.
ChatGPT can prepare drafts, outreach options, and interview questions, but it should not submit applications or contact anyone without your approval.
