Land a Job using ChatGPT: The Definitive Guide!

Why Most Chat GBT Outputs are a Waste of Time for Job Seekers

In this video, the speaker explains why most chat GBT outputs are not useful for job seekers. The speaker provides an example of a cover letter prompt and explains how to write a better cover letter using a multi-prompt approach.

Issues with Single Prompt Approach

  • The single prompt approach is all about the applicant and fails to take the reader into account.
  • A single prompt approach asks chat GBT to output too much information at once, whereas a dual or multi-prompt approach gives better results.

Multi-Prompt Approach

  • Step 1: Identify the biggest challenge someone in the position would face day-to-day based on the job description.
  • Step 2: Write an attention-grabbing hook that highlights your experience and qualifications in a way that shows you empathize with and can successfully take on the challenges of the role.
  • Step 3: Write a cover letter based on your resume that incorporates specific examples of how you've tackled challenges in your past work and expresses enthusiasm for the opportunity.

Tailoring Your Resume

  • Step 1: Use role prompting to highlight three important responsibilities from the job description.
  • Step 2. Tailor your resume for the specific role by asking chat GBT to use these three responsibilities as guidelines.

Overall, this video provides helpful tips for writing effective cover letters and resumes using chat GBT.
