Before you start filling out this form, there is something important you need to understand.
This tool is not just rewriting your resume.
The goal is to take your existing experience, understand the value in that experience, and reposition it so employers can better see how your background aligns with the roles you are targeting.
But here is the thing:
The tool can only work with the information you provide.
A lot of people underestimate how important the intake form is. They see it as just another form to complete, but this is actually one of the most important parts of the entire process.
The better information you provide, the better the tool can understand you, your experience, your skills, and what makes you different.
Take your time with this.
Do not rush through it.
1. Your Career Timeline Matters
One thing I want you to pay close attention to is your employment history.
When we ask you to provide your:
Most recent job
Second most recent job
Third most recent job
There is a reason for that.
The AI needs to understand your career timeline.
It needs to see:
Where you started
How your responsibilities changed
What skills you developed over time
What level you are currently operating at
What experience is most recent and relevant
This is why it is important to include:
Company name
Job title
Employment dates
Do not just put a job title.
For example:
"Administrative Assistant"
does not give enough context.
The tool needs to understand:
"Administrative Assistant at XYZ Company from January 2022 to June 2024."
The clearer the timeline is, the easier it is for the tool to connect your intake form with your existing resume and create a more accurate representation of your career.
2. Do Not Remove Experience Because You Think It Is Not Important
This is something I see people do often.
They remove jobs because they think:
"I was only there for a short time."
or
"It was not my best role."
But you have to remember, every experience tells part of your professional story.
A person who was a Team Leader for six months still has leadership experience.
A person who worked remotely for three months still has remote work experience.
A person who worked on a short-term contract still understands how to enter a workplace, learn quickly, and deliver results.
Especially when targeting remote roles, certain experiences can make you stand out.
Remote experience, leadership experience, and experience using digital tools are valuable.
Do not automatically remove something because you think it is too small.
3. The Tool Does Not Know What You Do Not Tell It
This is probably the biggest thing people misunderstand.
The AI does not know you personally.
It does not know:
The software you used
The systems you worked with
The responsibilities you handled
The problems you solved
The results you achieved
unless you provide that information.
For example:
Someone may write:
"I did reports."
But what does that actually mean?
Did you create Excel reports?
Did you analyze data?
Did you build dashboards?
Did you present information to leadership?
Those details matter.
The tool is not creating experience for you. It is taking the experience you already have and helping you communicate it better.
4. Be As Specific As Possible
The more specific you are, the stronger your resume can become.
A common mistake people make is giving answers that are too general.
For example:
"I helped customers."
That tells us very little.
Compare that to:
"Managed 100+ customer interactions daily, resolved escalations, maintained service standards, and used CRM systems to track customer concerns."
Now we understand the level of responsibility.
When answering the questions, think about:
How many people did you support?
How many customers did you handle?
What tools did you use?
What goals were you responsible for?
What problems did you solve?
What improvements did you make?
Details create stronger positioning.
5. Use Your Own Words
Do not worry about trying to sound like a resume when completing this form.
Explain your experience the way you would explain it to another person.
Your own words help us understand your thinking, your approach, and what makes your experience unique.
AI can make things more professional, but it cannot replace your perspective.
The more your answers sound like you, the easier it is to create a resume that does not feel generic.
6. We Are Repositioning Your Experience, Not Creating A New Career
The purpose of this tool is not to make you look like someone you are not.
The purpose is to help employers understand the value you already bring.
A lot of people underestimate their own experience because they only see the job title.
For example:
A customer service representative may think:
"I just answered calls."
But the reality may be:
Managed customer relationships
Solved complex problems
Worked under pressure
Used technology systems
Maintained performance targets
A sales professional may think:
"I just sold products."
But the reality may be:
Built relationships
Negotiated
Managed accounts
Increased revenue
Identified business opportunities
The goal is to uncover the value that already exists in your experience.
7. Take Time To Remember Your Tools
Another thing people underestimate is the importance of tools.
Many people write:
"Microsoft Office."
But they forget they used:
Excel reporting
Power BI
CRM systems
Accounting software
POS systems
Project management tools
These details matter because employers, especially remote employers, want to know that you are comfortable working with digital systems.
Take some time to think through the tools you have used throughout your career.
8. Remember: AI Is A Tool, Not A Replacement For You
Because this resume is created using AI, there may be times when the wording does not sound exactly like something a person would naturally say.
You may read something and think:
"That sounds a little strange."
That is okay.
AI is very good at organizing information, but it does not always perfectly understand human communication.
This is why your review is important.
Before applying, ask yourself:
Does this sound like me?
Is this accurate?
Would I say this in an interview?
Are my achievements correct?
Are my dates and job titles correct?
The best resumes come from combining AI assistance with your personal knowledge.
Final Reminder
Do not rush this process.
The intake form is where you give the tool the information it needs to understand your career.
A strong resume does not come from fancy wording.
A strong resume comes from clearly communicating the value you have already created.
Your experience is the foundation.
The tool helps you present it better.
