The 5-Second Resume

The resume that ended 50 applications of silence, as a kit you can run tonight.

A free job-search kit built from a real hired-in-a-week story: a plain-text ATS-safe resume template (one page, four blocks, verbs + numbers), the 5-second scan prompt that reads your resume like a tired hiring manager, plus the tailor, three-line cover letter, follow-up, and interview rehearsal prompts, and an application tracker CSV that turns silence into data.

Nobody reads. Everyone scans.

A hiring manager gives your page about five seconds. If the scan finds the exact job title they posted, your availability, and one number, you survive to the real read. Design for the scan.

The two errors

Fifty applications, no rejection, no no-thank-you — just silence. The diagnosis was two errors: applying to the wrong places, and wording that gets filtered in the first five seconds. The week both were fixed: hired.

Verbs and numbers

Not "responsible for tables" — "ran a 12-table section on Friday nights." Not "team player" — "covered 9 call-outs in 3 months." A number survives the scan; an adjective does not.

That is three of the cards. The rest is in the download.

what's inside

questions

Why is the template plain text?

Columns, graphics, and headshots read as noise to applicant tracking software. Plain text parses clean in every system and prints clean on every printer. Pretty gets filtered; plain gets read.

Do the prompts need a paid AI?

No. All five prompts work on the free tiers of ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini. Paste the prompt, paste your resume, done.

Is this really free?

Yes. The full kit downloads instantly. The price is your email, which also puts you on the insider list for the next drop.
