Resume tailoring, and the line between tailoring and lying

Tailoring should highlight relevant experience without adding facts. Where the line sits, and how Jobluvo is being built to stay on the right side of it.

Check every AI-assisted resume for accuracy. Here is where the line sits.

Allowed: order

Put the most relevant experience first. If the posting is about planning, your planning work goes first. It changes nothing about the truth.

Allowed: phrasing

"Managed strategic projects" becomes "Led a three year cost program across four business units" when that is what you did and the posting asks for transformation. Same facts, the employer's vocabulary.

Never: metrics, titles, dates, employers, skills

No invented percentages, no promoted titles, no stretched dates, no tools you have not used. Jobluvo's tailoring is being built to use only facts you confirmed in your profile, and a check flags any number or name that is not in them. No check catches everything, so review a tailored resume before it is used.

Why so strict

Do not include experience, qualifications or results you cannot support. Applications go out under your name.
