Writing Rules
Review and customize the writing style Career uses for resumes and cover letters.
How documents are written
Clear, warm, evidence-first
These preferences apply whenever Career creates or revises an application document. Changes affect future drafts; existing drafts remain unchanged until regenerated.
Sentence style
Mostly concise sentences with natural variation
Evidence style
Lead with supported outcomes and explain scope plainly
Terminology
Use the employer's accurate terms only when the saved evidence supports them
Voice
First person for cover letters; direct professional voice for resumes
Resume style
Relevant evidence that is easy to scan
Career uses these preferences for summaries, bullets, chronology, detail, and skills.
Summary
Three to four lines connecting product leadership, service design, analytics, and responsible AI
Bullets
Action, context, and supported result; avoid inflated verbs
Verb tense
Present tense for current work and past tense for completed work
Chronology
Reverse chronological with projects nested under the owning organization when helpful
Level of detail
Prioritize the most relevant four to six bullets per role
Skills
Use a compact, evidence-supported skills section
Cover-letter style
Employer value supported by evidence
Career uses these preferences for openings, structure, supporting examples, recipients, and the close.
Opening
Start with the employer problem or role connection, not a generic enthusiasm statement
Structure
One clear opening, two evidence paragraphs, and a concise close
Evidence style
Add relevant context and motivation while keeping every factual claim tied to saved evidence.
Recipient
Use a named recipient only when confirmed; otherwise use Hiring Team
Closing
End with the value Jordan can bring and interest in a conversation
Level of detail
Usually 300 to 425 words

Protected safeguards
Style can change; truth and readability cannot
Writing can be warmer, more formal, more concise, more detailed, or otherwise personalized. Career will still use only verified evidence, keep dates and facts consistent, reject hidden text and keyword stuffing, preserve a readable single-column structure, and run content and print checks before a draft is ready to review.
Truth before tailoring
Style preferences cannot invent or exaggerate experience, metrics, credentials, employer facts, or motivation.
Readable for people and systems
Important text remains selectable, logically ordered, naturally worded, and free of hidden or stuffed terms.
Checked before review
Career verifies supported claims, consistency, readable layout, print behavior, and unresolved placeholders.
