How to use it
- Open chatgpt.com or claude.ai (or another AI listed here).
- Paste the link into the prompt where it says so. The AI needs web access for this (on by default in most apps).
- Fill in the highlighted blank ([JOB POSTING URL]) below, or edit them after pasting.
- Copy the prompt, paste it into the chat and send.
- If the AI can't open the link, paste the posting text.
Fill in the blanks (optional)
Prompt
Job posting: [JOB POSTING URL]. My resume highlights: [3–5 HIGHLIGHTS]. Read the posting and the company's site. Write a cover letter under 250 words: open with a specific reason I want this company (from what you found), connect 2 of my results to their needs, end with a confident ask. No clichés like "I am writing to apply".
