AI Job Search Kit

A prompt-and-template kit for job seekers who use an AI chat assistant, built on one rule: keep every claim true.

This kit gives general information and starting prompts. It is not legal or financial advice, and it does not promise interviews, offers or income. Never let AI invent experience, credentials, dates, metrics or references. Follow each employer's stated rules about AI in applications. Review all AI output before relying on it.

Companion files in the same folder: evidence-file-template.md, story-bank-template.md, application-tracker.csv.
