Most people paste their resume into ChatGPT, type "make this better," and wonder why nothing changes. That's not how you fix a resume that isn't landing offers.

This is the full setup for the 4 Claude skills I mentioned in the reel. Run them in order and you'll go from "why is no one calling back" to a resume that actually clears the applicant tracking system, matches what recruiters are searching for, and reads like the top 5% of candidates in your field.

🛠️ Two ways to use each one

Each of the 4 setups below can be used two ways. Pick whichever fits your workflow. Same exact block, the difference is where you save it.

  1. One-time prompt. Copy the block, paste it into a fresh Claude chat, fill in the [BRACKETS], hit send. Fast and easy. Best if you only need to fix your resume once.
  2. Permanent skill. Install the block once as a Claude skill. After that, you just type something like "diagnose my resume" or "interview me for a [role]" and Claude auto-loads the right setup every time. Best if you're job-hunting actively, applying to multiple roles, or want to re-run the loop every few weeks without copy-pasting.

📥 How to install one as a skill (one-time setup)

A Claude skill is a tiny markdown file (called SKILL.md) that lives inside your Claude. The top section (between the two --- lines) is the frontmatter. Claude reads it to decide when the skill should auto-trigger. Everything below is the actual instructions.

Pick the surface you use and follow the matching steps. You only do this once per skill.

Claude.ai (browser)

  1. Click your profile picture (bottom left) → Settings → Capabilities → Skills → Create skill
  2. Paste the whole block from below (frontmatter and body together)
  3. Save

Claude Desktop (Mac or Windows app)

  1. Settings → Capabilities → Skills → Create skill (or "Open skills folder")
  2. Paste the whole block
  3. Save and restart the app

Claude Code (terminal)

  1. In Terminal, run: mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills/<skill-name> (replace <skill-name> with the name field from the frontmatter, e.g. resume-diagnoser)
  2. Inside that folder, create a file called SKILL.md and paste the whole block
