How do you walk someone through your resume?

Insight

Give a coherent career narrative in about 2–3 minutes, not a reading of bullets. Explain transitions. Use forward-looking language: what each stage taught you that you can do now. Spend more time on recent, relevant work. End by connecting that path to this opportunity.

Guidance

  1. Group early jobs if they are not the point.
  2. For each major stage: one sentence why you were there, one sentence what you can do because of it.
  3. Name the thread (a capability or problem type) so it is not a list.

AI amplification

Optional. Copy this into ChatGPT or a similar tool if you want a first draft. Replace the [PASTE] sections with your own material. The work stays in that tool; we do not save it here.

Prompt to copy

Rules: Do not invent employers, job titles, dates, metrics, team sizes, or outcomes. If something is missing, ask me or write [unknown]. Keep hedges such as "approximately" and "more than" exactly as I stated them. Never turn a qualitative result into a number.

Draft a 2–3 minute “walk me through your resume” spoken answer. Narrative, not bullets. Explain transitions. Emphasize recent relevant work. End on this role. Do not invent jobs or metrics.
