Step 5: Add a Target Job Title and Description
Our AI Resume Builder helps you tailor your resume specifically to specific job opportunities. Hence, we ask you to submit a job title and description at the time of resume creation. This helps our AI learn what type of role you're looking for, and adjust any suggestions accordingly.
You can either manually add a Target Job Title and Job Description, or choose from a Job you've already imported into your Careerflow Job Tracker.
When done, click "Continue".
