Prompt Engineering Reflection 

While curating the revised resumes the two prompts that I used were: “Please upload the PDF file directly here, and I’ll create: A version tailored for IT companies hiring a Project Manager, and A version tailored for a design company hiring a lead consumer research consultant.” I saw several significant changes to my original resume that I was surprisingly shocked. I noticed that in both resumes that the AI versions had more detailed descriptions for each bullet point to the point it made both revised resumes longer than one page. Also, I noticed that the AI generated version for IT companies used more technical terms focused on project documents and leading approaches like planning, coordinating, and organizing. Which I definitely favored because this version was catering more towards showing leadership qualities and skills for the project manager position, I put in the prompt. Similarly, for the research consultant prompt, it revised the bullet points and details to fit observational and behavior analysis for user and community experiences. This was really helpful because it shows insightful qualities, I would want to show that I qualify for the position. 

Interestingly, I learned a lot about prompt engineering and tailoring content like how much it can fix up specific bullet points and details about my (individual) experience. I’ve had help with my resume before from multiple resources and I was always unsure to add too much in my bullet descriptions, or I was under the presumption to only keep it one page. However, the prompt engineering showed me that it is okay to have longer resumes and detailed responses. Also, it provided me a professional insight of what my potential higher ups would like to see in candidate traits that I can work on further within myself. Furthermore, the different audiences and work force I incorporated in the prompt shows me common traits and terms I can use for future reference.
