Convert Your LinkedIn Profile Into a Resume
Your LinkedIn profile is current but you have no resume file to send
I am converting my LinkedIn profile into a resume. LinkedIn writing is first person and promotional. A resume is neither.
Career stage — 9-15 years
Resume Prompts for Senior and Lead Roles
At senior, staff, and lead level, a resume that lists tasks you completed reads as more junior than the work was, because the reader is holding a different question: what did you decide, who moved because of it, and how large was the surface you were responsible for. The best input here is not your old resume — it is a design doc, a postmortem, a reorg plan, or a review you wrote. These prompts work from that kind of document. They also check the opposite mistake: influence described so abstractly that nobody can tell what you actually did.
Before you paste any of these
- Feed it a document, not a resume — A design doc, a postmortem, a migration plan, or a self-review carries the tradeoffs and outcomes that a resume bullet already flattened. Paste one and ask for bullets grounded only in what that document says.
- Ask which bullets are still individual-contributor work — Have the model split your bullets into work you personally executed and decisions that moved other people, labeling each without rewriting. Some hands-on lines should stay — you want to see the ratio before you choose.
- State the scope a reader cannot infer — Team size, services or products owned, on-call reach, people you hired, budget. Ask the model to list which of these your draft never states, then supply the ones you actually know.
- 2 versions, and make it show the cut — If you are weighing the management and the individual-contributor track, ask for a version of each plus a list of what it demoted or dropped in both. The cut list is where you will disagree with it, and that is the useful part.

Build Experience Bullets From a Performance Review
You have a performance review or self-assessment and it is the best surviving record of what you actually did
I am building the Experience entry for one job out of my own performance review. A review is written for my manager, who already knows the context. A resume is written for a stranger who does not.
Use an Old Job Description as a Memory Jog
You cannot remember the detail of an older role but you still have the job description you worked under
I am rebuilding the Experience entry for one role using the job description I worked under. That document says what the job was meant to be. Only I know what the job turned out to be.
Turn Duties Into Results
Your bullets read like the job description you were handed rather than what changed because you were there
You are helping me rewrite resume bullets for one role.
Fix Tense and Parallel Structure
You have edited the same resume for years and the lines no longer match each other in tense, shape, or punctuation
Proofread my resume bullets for internal consistency. Here they are, grouped by role:
Rewrite for a Non-Specialist Reader
The first person to read your resume works outside your discipline and your bullets are full of internal names and acronyms
Read the following bullets as someone who does not work in my field.
State Scope When There Is No Metric
When the work had no measurable outcome but did have a real size — a team, a budget, a queue, a caseload
Some of my work produced no outcome metric, but it had real scope. Help me state the scope accurately instead of reaching for a result.
Before and After, With Both Numbers
When you moved something from one number to another and can cite both
Write a before-and-after bullet from 2 figures I can source.
Executive Profile Paragraph
You are applying at a level where the reader wants scope and outcomes in the first 4 lines
Write the profile paragraph at the top of an executive resume. My material is below.
Career Change Summary From Real Evidence
You are moving fields and the top of your resume has to explain the jump before anyone reads further
I am changing fields and I need a summary that does not read as a stretch.
Decide What to Cut for This Application
When tailoring has pushed your resume onto an extra page and something has to leave
I need this resume down to [1 OR 2] pages for the posting below. Help me choose what goes.
Tailor a Resume for an Internal Transfer
When you are applying to another team at your current employer and the reader already knows part of your work
I am applying for a move to another team at my current employer. The reader knows the company, may know some of my work, and does not need the context an outside reader would.
