Prompts for Job seekers and freelancers

Job seekers and freelancers need a tidy profile picture, a visiting card and a neat biodata layout. These prompts are for LinkedIn, WhatsApp and your résumé.

How it works for you

  1. Step 1

    Copy the prompt that fits your need.

  2. Step 2

    Attach a clear, front-facing photo of yourself in your AI app and paste the prompt.

  3. Step 3

    Check that the result still looks like you. Do not use a picture that changes your face as your profile photo.

Do not show a degree, job title or company logo that is not yours. That would be a false claim.

Common questions

Can I use an AI profile picture on LinkedIn?

You can, if it still looks like you. A picture that changes your face or age can mislead the people who read your profile.

Can the AI write my qualifications?

These are picture prompts only. Write your education and experience yourself, and keep it true.

What if the text on a visiting card comes out wrong?

AI often misspells text. Take only the design from it and add your name and number yourself.
