AI for job hunting: CVs, cover letters, and interview prep — companion videos

The article walks through the realistic AI workflow for a real job search — tailor the CV, write a cover-letter hook, prep for "tell me about yourself," follow up, negotiate. These two videos are the two halves of the same playbook from Jeff Su, packed with the actual prompts and the prompt-engineering moves (knowledge generation, few-shot, "let's think step by step") that make them work.

Land a Job using ChatGPT: The Definitive Guide!

Jeff Su

Ten minutes of the most-watched ChatGPT-for-job-search video on YouTube, and it earns it. Jeff shows the multi-prompt approach for tailoring a cover-letter hook to a real job description, then the "rewrite this bullet as I accomplished X by doing Y resulting in Z" pattern for resumes, then a clean walk-through of preparing the "tell me about yourself" answer. The exact moves the article recommends, demonstrated on screen with the prompts visible.

What you should get from this: You can tailor a cover-letter hook and rewrite resume bullets against a real job description using a multi-prompt workflow.

Watch or know first: None — bring a real job description and your current CV.

AI Expert note: The prompts are shown on screen, so watch it at a desk and copy them against a live application rather than saving it for later.

I wish every Job Seeker would watch this

Jeff Su

Part two of the same series, covering the parts of the job search the first video doesn't — landing coffee chats via LinkedIn, asking good questions in the interview, writing thank-you emails, and the role-play prompt for practising salary negotiation. Watch this after the article and you'll have ChatGPT-assisted scripts for every awkward part of the funnel, not just the application itself.

What you should get from this: Use AI to prepare outreach, interviews and follow-ups while keeping your story specific and honest.

Watch or know first: Watch the primary pick first — this is part two of the same playbook.

AI Expert note: Covers the funnel stages most AI-job-search videos skip — outreach, interview questions, thank-yous, negotiation — so save it for when the applications start landing.
