Rewrite a weak bullet

"Rewrite this resume bullet using an action verb and a measurable result, under 20 words: [paste bullet]."

Write a summary

"Write a 2-line resume summary for a [role] with [X years] in [skills], highlighting [achievement]."

Tailor to a job

"Here is my resume and a job description. List the missing keywords and rewrite my bullets to match — without inventing anything: [paste both]."
