The big idea
Many parents apply to jobs with the same resume from 2010. You can help them use AI to tailor it for each posting — that's a real win for the household.
Some examples
- Paste a job posting into ChatGPT and ask for resume tweaks.
- Mirror keywords from the posting into the resume.
- Always have a real human (you!) read the result.
- Save versions of the resume per industry, not per job.
Try it!
Sit with a parent this week, find one real job posting, and use AI to draft tweaks to their resume together.
