"Wait this isn't 100% accurate"

First things first: We take accuracy seriously. As an AI company, we're constantly improving to minimize errors and prevent hallucinations. If you come across something that is definitely incorrect, we sincerely apologize—please let us know!


But if it's not outright wrong, and instead just feels like a stretch, let's talk about that.


We Are Your Cheerleaders.

Growth isn't always comfortable, and part of our job is to push the envelope—without crossing into dishonesty. Many people underestimate their own abilities and experiences.

If our phrasing makes you pause, ask yourself:

  • Are you underselling yourself?

  • Could you actually do this task on the job, even if it wasn't a formal part of your last role?

  • Is this a skill you've demonstrated in a different context?


If you're unsure, take a moment to reflect (or message us—we're happy to help!). Odds are, you do have the potential we're highlighting. Heck, ask chatGPT for its take.


Your Resume Is a Sales Pitch.

A resume isn't a legal document—it's a tool to get you hired for a job you can do. Space is limited, so sometimes details get streamlined. We may combine elements of your experience to create a clearer, stronger narrative. That's okay, as long as you're able to confidently discuss each point in an interview.


If a bullet point doesn't feel quite right, consider why before dismissing it. You might be more qualified than you think.
