Easy-Job-Tutor: Teaching AI to Be an Honest Resume Coach
Job hunting for students is opaque. You paste a job description, upload your resume, and wait. What the company is looking for, how your background stacks up against it, what you should work on next — no one tells you.
Easy-Job-Tutor is my attempt to change that. It is not an app. It is a skill — a set of instructions that turns any capable AI assistant into a resume coach. Install it once, and the assistant learns how to analyze a JD, diagnose gaps against your experience, ask for the details you haven't written down, rewrite bullet points, draft cover letters and referral messages, prepare interview answers, and — when asked — build an ATS-friendly PDF resume.
A skill, not an app
Designing it as a skill rather than a product was deliberate. Students already talk to AI every day; they don't need another account, another interface, another tab. The instructions travel to wherever the conversation happens — Claude Code, Codex CLI, OpenCode, Hermes, any assistant that can read a manual. Installation is one command.
Honesty is the feature
The part I'm most careful about is honesty. A resume tool that flatters you is not useful. The skill's rules are built around one constraint: never invent. Every fact in your background is tracked as confirmed, pending_confirmation, or model_inference, with its source. Only confirmed facts may enter the final resume. If a claim can't be supported, the assistant asks for the missing detail instead of guessing. If you ask it to fabricate, it refuses, explains the risk, and offers truthful alternatives.
The review system follows the same discipline. Five dimensions — JD match, ATS, HR scanability, interview readiness, credibility — each scored with evidence and a concrete improvement action. When material is insufficient, it says so instead of guessing a number. A resume built this way holds up: every claim survives an interviewer's follow-up question, because nothing in it was made up to begin with.
What it ships with
The skill comes with analysis and review templates, PDF design specs, build and verification scripts, example workflows, and documentation in six languages, released under Apache 2.0 — the source is on GitHub. It has since grown siblings: a browser extension, and a web version of the same logic.
I built this for a simple reason. When I was looking for my first job, I would have appreciated something that told me plainly what was missing. Easy-Job-Tutor is an attempt to be that, for someone else.
