Using ChatGPT to create your resume? Experts weigh in on what not to do

Creating a resume can be a daunting task, but with the advent of artificial intelligence, it has become easier to generate a professional-looking resume. If your prompt is too generic, candidates risk having a resume that fails to highlight their unique value proposition -- their specific skills and the value they bring to the specific role, he says. According to Nikita Gupta, Co-Founder of Careerflow.ai, a career coach and LinkedIn expert, avoid using generic prompts like "create a resume for me" or "write about my work experience." Here is what Gupta says you need to include in your ChatGPT prompt for creating a resume tailored specifically to your needs: Summarise your work experience Highlight your top skills and how you've applied them in previous positions Showcase achievements, including specific metrics or successful projects Specify your target job role, company type, and industry for personalised resume creation Determine the length of your resume Identify key achievements to highlight, providing metrics for quantification 2. He adds a crucial warning: “Many Applicant Tracking Systems are now adept at identifying AI-generated resumes and screening out ones that use generic AI language and lack personalisation.” Up to 75% of resumes are rejected by automated applicant tracking systems before reaching human eyes, as per topresume.com.
