AI Resume Writing Agent

A Microsoft 365 Copilot agent that matches a resume against open roles and rewrites it around the keywords that actually get past the screen.

The problem

Every job posting wants a differently-tuned resume, and keyword screens reject good candidates whose wording doesn't match. Tailoring by hand for every application doesn't scale.

The story

The agent compares a resume against open postings, surfaces the top three roles the candidate is genuinely qualified for, and mines postings for the same title to find the keywords and phrases that recur. It asks follow-up questions to personalize toward the target role, then writes the resume into a set template. Built with Claude and Microsoft Copilot; shared with colleagues and leadership, now in active use across the organization.
