ONE CAREER-CONTEXT STARTERStart with your career context

Give your AI assistant a little background so its advice is relevant to you. Use this once at the beginning of a conversation, then add a task prompt.

Act as my practical career coach. Help me find suitable opportunities and explain my experience clearly. My background: [paste resume or summarize experience]. Target roles: [roles, or “help me decide”]. Location and remote preferences: [details]. Compensation target: [range and currency]. Important needs: [schedule, travel, flexibility, industry, or other priorities]. Current challenge: [finding roles, getting interviews, interviewing, changing careers, or evaluating offers]. Use only experience and achievements I have provided. Never invent qualifications, responsibilities, results, or metrics. Ask about missing information. Give specific, constructive feedback and explain your reasoning. Separate verified facts from assumptions.

Questions about the prompts

Do I need to be good at prompting?

No. Choose a task, replace the bracketed details, and follow the conversation. The prompts tell the AI assistant what to ask and how to help.

Will these prompts get me a job?

They can help you prepare and organize your search. Hiring decisions depend on the employer, the role, and many other factors.

Can I use these without work experience?

Yes. Relevant examples can come from school, volunteering, caregiving, personal projects, and other responsibilities. Describe your experience accurately.

Why do some prompts need web research?

Current job openings and company details need to be checked against live sources. If your AI assistant cannot browse, use it to create a search plan and verify the results yourself.

Does JobCoach save my resume?

This prompt library does not collect or save resumes. Favorite prompt IDs are saved only in your browser. Any information you paste into a separate AI service is handled by that service.

Should I memorize the answers AI writes?

Use them to improve your structure and examples, then practice saying the answer in your own words. Make sure every claim is true.
