커리어팁] #53 직장인의 챗GPT 활용하기 (2)

Cover letter 만들기

*쉰살이 넘은 저는 아직도 영어를 배우고 있습니다. 제가 올린 내용에 혹시 틀린 것이 있으면 알려주세요. 저 계속 배우고 시포~~요~~~~  그리고 [구독] 과 [좋아요] 꾹~ 눌러주세요~!!

안녕하세요,

챗GPT를 활용해서 biography를 만드는 포스트를 했었는데요. 오늘은 제 이력서를 넣고 cover letter를 작성해보겠습니다. 처음 버전을 만든 뒤에 명령어를 계속 넣어가면서 버전을 refine 해가면 좋습니다. 

그리고 어떤 한 버전을 그대로 사용한다기 보다는 여러가지 버전 중에서 본인이 좋아하는 부분을 골라서 사용하시고요.  또 본인만이 가장 잘 표현할 수 있는 통합적인 경험이나 인사이트 등, 그리고 각 회사의 특성을 살려서 그 부분을 언급하는 것은 정말 중요하므로, ChatGPT가 준 버전을 그대로는 사용하지 마시구요. 그냥 첫 출발점으로 생각하시면 좋을 것 같습니다..  

명령어 (prompts)   

    맨처음 사용한 명령어: write a cover letter for the VP of Communications in a fintech company, using this resume.  

    1차 버전이 나왔고, 저는 leadership style을 강조해 달라고 했습니다. rewrite the coverage highlighting your leadership style as people-oriented and team spirits-driven, yet result-driven as well.   

    답변이 나왔고, 너무 길어서 1/2로 줄여달라고 했습니다. shorten the cover letter into half, not sacrificing the meaning.  

*그리고 본인이 작성한 문장에 대해서는 Proofread this. 혹은 Rewrite it in a professional way. 이런 식으로 명령어를 주고 내용을 붙이면 챗GPT가 리뷰해줍니다!!
