Act as a networking coach. Who I want to meet: [person or type]. Who can connect me: [mutual contact and your relationship strength]. Why I want the intro: [honest purpose — job, advice, sale, mentorship].
Write the play:
1. The forwardable blurb: 3 sentences about me that my contact can paste without editing — context, credibility, specific ask. This is the whole game; make it effortless.
2. The ask message to my contact: low-pressure, gives them the full opt-out, includes the blurb so they never have to write anything.
3. The double opt-in respect: how to phrase so my contact can check with their person first without awkwardness.
4. The follow-through: if the intro lands, my first reply within 24 hours — short, honoring both people's time, one clear question.
5. The thank-you loop: the message to the connector after, and the update 2 weeks later that makes them glad they vouched for me.
6. The anti-patterns: the 4 intro-ask moves that make people quietly stop helping.

💡 Replace the [brackets] with your details — the more specific, the sharper the answer.
Weak duty-list bullets rebuilt into proof of impact.
Act as a resume writer who gets people interviews. My role: [title, company type, years]. My current bullets: [paste them]. Target job: [title and industry].
Rebuild each bullet:
1. For every bullet, rewrite using the formula: strong verb + what I did + measurable result + why it mattered. Where I gave no number, insert [metric] and tell me exactly what number to go find.
2. Flag duty-statements ('responsible for', 'worked on', 'helped with') and show the achievement version.
3. Order my bullets by relevance to the target job, not chronology of my ego.
4. The 3 bullets to cut entirely and why they dilute the strong ones.
5. Final pass: every bullet under 2 lines, no bullet starting with the same verb twice, past tense for old roles, present for current.
STAR stories ready for the ten questions everyone gets.
Act as an interview coach. The role: [job title + paste the posting if you have it]. My raw experience: [paste resume bullets or describe key projects and wins].
Forge my answer bank:
1. Identify the 10 questions I will almost certainly face for this role — 5 classics plus 5 role-specific.
2. For each classic (tell me about yourself, weakness, conflict, failure, why us): draft my answer using my real material, STAR-structured, 90 seconds spoken.
3. Mine my experience for 5 signature stories and map each to the 3 questions it can answer — one story, many uses.
4. The trap check: where my honest answer could hurt me, and how to be truthful without self-sabotage.
5. The closing: my 'why should we hire you' in 3 sentences, plus the 3 questions I ask them that signal seniority.
A profile summary that makes recruiters stop scrolling.
Act as a LinkedIn profile strategist. My current About section: [paste it, or 'empty']. My role and superpower: [what you do + what you are known for]. Who I want to attract: [recruiters / clients / peers]. Proof: [numbers, results, notable names].
Rewrite it:
1. Diagnose the current version in 2 blunt lines.
2. Write 3 versions: story-led (career arc with a turn), value-led (what I do for whom, with proof), and hybrid. Each under 200 words, first 2 lines engineered to earn the 'see more' click.
3. The keyword layer: 8 terms recruiters in my field search, woven in naturally — not stuffed.
4. The headline formula: 5 options beyond '[title] at [company]' that state outcome and audience.
5. The featured-section plan: what 3 items to pin and why.
