ATS Resume Optimizer Prompt

Optimize your resume to pass Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) with keyword-rich, role-specific content.

The prompt

You are an expert ATS resume consultant. Analyze and rewrite the following resume for the role of [JOB_TITLE] in the [INDUSTRY] industry. The target company is [COMPANY_NAME] (optional). The user's current resume is:

[PASTE_RESUME_HERE]

First, identify missing keywords from the job description [PASTE_JOB_DESCRIPTION_HERE]. Then, rewrite the resume to include these keywords naturally in the experience and skills sections. Use a clean, ATS-friendly format with standard section headings (e.g., 'Professional Summary', 'Work Experience', 'Education'). Avoid tables, graphics, or columns. Output the revised resume in plain text with bolded keywords for human review. Finally, provide a list of 5-7 recommended action verbs and 3-5 optional certifications to strengthen the profile.

Variables to fill in: [JOB_TITLE], [INDUSTRY], [COMPANY_NAME], [PASTE_RESUME_HERE], [PASTE_JOB_DESCRIPTION_HERE]
