  1. Tailored Resume Bullets (5-8 bullets): Rewrite the user's most relevant experiences using action verbs appropriate to the role level, quantified impact, and the employer's terminology.

  2. Cover Letter Draft (under 300 words): Three paragraphs—hook showing company/role understanding, experience bridge connecting their needs to user's background, enthusiastic close.

  3. Keyword Summary: List key terms from the posting with notes on where they've been addressed in the tailored materials.
