Tailor your cover letter precisely to the job posting
The biggest problem with job applications: cover letters sound interchangeable. Hiring managers immediately notice whether someone sent a standard template or genuinely engaged with the position. This prompt solves that by systematically analyzing the job posting and aligning your cover letter point by point.
How it works: You provide the AI with the job posting, your resume bullet points, and optionally an existing cover letter. The AI identifies key requirements, maps your experience to them, and drafts a cover letter that concretely shows why you are the right fit.
Important: Always review the result critically and adapt it to your personal style. The AI provides the structure and the right focus areas -- the personal touch comes from you.

If a requirement is not covered, frame learning readiness with a concrete example instead. **Step 3 -- Cover letter:** Write a cover letter (max 350 words) with: - A strong opening sentence that does NOT start with 'I am writing to apply for' - One paragraph per core requirement with a concrete example from my experience - A closing sentence that invites conversation without sounding submissive Show me your analysis (Steps 1+2) first, then the finished cover letter. --- **Job posting:** [Paste the complete job posting here] **My profile (bullet points):** [Current position, e.g., Project Manager for 3 years at mid-sized company] [Relevant experience, e.g., team lead of 5, budget responsibility of 500k EUR] [Education, e.g., Business degree, Agile Project Management certification] [Key strengths, e.g., process optimization, stakeholder communication] **Desired tone:** [formal / modern-professional / casual]
