My Story
I didn’t plan to become a resume whisperer. I was just trying to survive.
When the company I worked for cut my hours, I suddenly needed to get serious about job hunting—fast. I had valuable skills, a ton of experience, and a passion for helping people. I also had a winding, unconventional career path that didn’t fit neatly into a two-page resume. And I knew I couldn’t afford to waste time sending out generic applications and hoping for the best.
So I got scrappy.
I turned to ChatGPT, uploaded my master resume, and built a system to help me customize each application quickly and effectively. I created a Project, added clear instructions, and started feeding in job descriptions. Resume by resume, cover letter by cover letter—I crafted applications that felt personal, powerful, and polished.
And guess what? It worked.
Within weeks, I had interviews on the calendar. Seven of them, to be exact. And within six weeks: a job offer.
No burnout. No second-guessing. Just a strategy that worked.
After helping friends and clients use the same approach, I knew it was time to share it more widely.
