How to Use AI for Your Resume the Right Way
AI can make a resume clearer. AI can also invent a career. The difference is the prompt and the QA.
Short answer: Feed AI your real bullets. Ask for clarity and JD alignment. Reject new tools, titles, and numbers. Then verify out loud.

The right AI resume loop
1. Scrub personal data
2. Paste one section, not your whole life
3. Constrain: "Do not add facts I did not provide"
4. Align to one JD
5. Human QA before export
Wrong uses
- "Write a senior PM resume" from a blank prompt
- Keyword stuffing the entire JD
- Trusting AI on sponsorship language
