Tailor your resume for a real job posting

Applicant tracking systems (ATS) often screen applications before a human sees them. Take one real internship or job posting, map the keyword gaps, and use AI to tailor your resume through three tracked iterations while keeping every claim true.

The work brief

  1. 01Find a real, currently-open internship posting (Internshala, LinkedIn, company site) you could plausibly apply to.
  2. 02Extract its required skills/keywords, then honestly map which you have, partly have, or lack.
  3. 03Draft your resume, then improve it across 3 iterations using AI — keeping every claim true.
  4. 04Show the before/after keyword match and what changed in each iteration.

What you’ll produce

4 deliverables

Submission standard

Submit the posting link, your gap analysis, the 3 iterations with what changed, and your final resume text. Fabricated experience fails automatically. Include your AI workflow — the prompts you used each round and what you kept, changed, or rejected. Share a public link to the AI chat showing your three tailoring rounds so the iteration is verifiable and honest.

  • Link to the real posting

    Must be a currently-live posting (not expired or removed) that you could plausibly apply to.

    Public linkRequired
  • Keyword gap analysis: their requirements vs. your honest reality

    Written responseRequired
  • The 3 iterations: what changed each round and why

    Written responseRequired
  • Your final tailored resume (paste as text)

    Written responseRequired

You’ll complete these inside your private workspace.

What you must submit as proof

This brief requires evidence an AI can’t fabricate.

  • Public share link to your resume-tailoring chat

    Your live AI chat showing the three tailoring rounds — the same iterations you describe, keeping every claim true.

    Public linkRequired

Submissions without this evidence cannot be submitted.

Protect other people in your proof. Blur faces, names, phone numbers and email addresses before you upload, and refer to anyone you worked with by role or number ("Listener 1", "the stall owner"). Your proof is only ever used to check your work — it is never published, never appears on your certificate, and is never shown in your public portfolio.

How your work is evaluated

The passing benchmark is 70/100.

Tailoring

29%

The final resume clearly targets this specific posting.

Honest iteration

29%

Three real improvement rounds without inventing experience.

Real posting

14%

The posting is real, current, and plausible for the student.

Traceable, honest iteration

29%

Auto-fail if there is no chat link, or the final resume claims exceed what the chat and gap analysis support (fabricated experience).

How we grade your AI usage

30% of your score

Using AI is the point — it’s the skill this certificate proves. You’ll answer three short questions about how you used it: what you asked, what was wrong with its first answer, and what you changed. Specific, honest answers score high. “I pasted the brief and submitted the answer” scores near zero.
