Validating AI feasibility

Thought deeply about it overnight (til 3 AM) and realized AI is an integral part of the app and should be MVP. Before moving further, we need to validate that we have available resources for AI capabilities that can do what we expect it to do.

What do we want it to do?

• Generate a high-performing resume draft based on a role and general information about the user’s experience/skills
• Rewrite a resume based on a job description
• Rewrite a resume based on other resumes
• Highlight strengths and weaknesses of a resume against that job description, with prompts to improve
• Translate resumes in different languages
• Share insight around critical keywords/outlines that high-performing resumes use for a certain role

A simple test with Chat GPT that a lot of these are very doable.

I then pasted a sample senior frontend engineer job description. It came back with a pretty decent draft that highlighted a lot of the job requirements. It is a bit lengthy, but certainly, a good place to start.

I then fed it more information about my experience.

Then it rewrote based on it while keeping its reference to the job description from earlier.

Additionally, I can ask AI to generate the list of hard and soft skills listed in the JD and show me which are included in my resume.

As you can see, this opens up tons of opportunities for improvements that we can ask AI to assist us with. Displaying insights, and actionable items like “Emphasize my leadership experience clearly” can be powerful allies to save us time and make us stand out more. In fact, this actually got me more excited to build this application that leverages this power in a clean interface.

This is just the Chat interface, so the next step is to revalidate with the public version of OpenAI API that we will use to power the application in the background.
