This is a really good point. I've also moved upwards into jobs I don't technically meet the requirements in most of my roles. I wonder if an AI tool could generate a new resume based on your existing resume and the job spec for a role to find the best intersection of the two in order to increase your chances of getting an interview...

This is exactly what i have been working on for few weeks but not been able to get a good final results. I want to make sure that AI is not overselling my skills or completely deviating from my current experiences/skill set when trying to tailor resume for a job post.

  This is an interesting problem, I might start by having ChatGPT try to infer a complete list of tools and skills each position involved along with a confidence score (even those you didn't originally tell it about) From there you could allow it to remix the skills while maintaining an average level of confidence greater than some number: so it'd be allowed to include things slightly out of your wheelhouse only if most of the job skills matched up perfectly. You wouldn't need the math to check out perfectly there, the score would just be a heuristic it could use internally

    Cool, i should try it..so far i have been working with rephrasing the work experiences description to fit a job description using GPT3.5 api. Still have not engineered the prompt to get reasonable output.For tools and skills , i have a prefilled dictionary which more or less represent my expertises. task of GPT is select top n skills/tools and put them in final result.

  Another challenge is to get the AI generated output to fit in a page and preserve original formatting

    yeah using chain of thoughts to tackle it. This is relatively simple

The idea of using AI to tailor a resume to a specific job spec is promising. Although there isn't direct research on generating resumes using language models, I found related studies in MirrorThink.ai that provide insights into this application. For example, [1] demonstrates the potential of using prompt-based learning for extracting information from resumes with only a few labeled examples. Another relevant study, [2], explores the tradeoff between removing gendered information and maintaining useful job-related information in the resume screening context. These papers suggest that AI models could be employed to analyze your existing resume and the job specification, and then generate a tailored resume that highlights the most relevant skills and experiences. The main challenge lies in striking a balance between tailoring the resume and maintaining an accurate representation of your abilities.
