I’m looking for something that takes a CV (e.g. md, pdf, odt, whatever) and a site to the job post as inputs and outputs a CV that is tailored to the requirements listed in that job post, without significantly changing the CV in some way…
I know that LLMs would be best used for such a problem, but the issue is that I don’t have such a beefy computer to run an LLM locally… Maybe there’s something out there that doesn’t use an LLM? Anything that helps with applying and making sure that the CV is attractive enough to your average ATS, honestly.
I dont have any specific llms to recommend but if you do want to go that route you could always run it remotely through something like Google collab.
But I don’t know if I would trust the results of an llm doing this as any mistake would make your entire resume untrustworthy
How tailored are you looking to make it? Looking at a job listing and that says “must have good organisational skills” and writing “I have good organisational skills” is a simple copy with a find and replace, but probably not going to land you an interview.
If you don’t want to appear like a bot when applying I recommend doing this yourself like everyone else. The ATS will flag it
There are a few services out there that do this. They are basically job tracking sites, but a lot of them now use something like chatgpt to tailor your resume to a job description. I do recommend these services to track jobs you applied to, but they are not always the best in rewriting your resume.
One thing I have done is create a section of skills that closely match the jobs I am applying for. You can then use chatgpt API and create a prompt. This makes it easier so that all you need to do is give it the job description and it will tailor those skills sets to the job and I then just copy and paste that into my resume.
