How AI Enhanced My Resume, LinkedIn Profile, and Secured 3 Interviews

As a self-taught developer who recently left a contract job, I wasn’t prepared for how much effort it takes to re-enter the tech job market.

Updating my resume, writing custom cover letters, tailoring my LinkedIn…
Each step felt like a drain on my mental bandwidth.

So, I turned to AI — but not in the generic "let it write for me" way.
Instead, I used structured prompts to coach the AI like a career consultant.

✅ Prompt #1: Resume Rewrite

"Act as a technical recruiter. Rewrite my resume to emphasize front-end projects, impact, and measurable outcomes."

→ Result: A cleaner, achievement-focused resume with punchier bullet points.

"You are a personal branding expert. Craft 3 compelling LinkedIn headlines for a React developer seeking remote opportunities."

→ I used one of the suggestions — and started getting more profile views.

"Write a cover letter for a junior React developer applying to a healthcare SaaS startup. Use a conversational but professional tone."

→ Saved me from the painful blank-page phase.

By combining these types of prompts, I systematized the whole job search process.
Less stress, faster output, better results.

If you're job hunting — especially in tech — you don’t need to do it alone (or manually).
