The Challenge

​​

Parbeen lives in the UK but was born in India. She works in an office job but wants to apply for a higher-level role in his company. Parbeen faces several challenges:

​

• She is not familiar with British CV and cover letter styles

• She wants to highlight his experience effectively

• English is not his first language, so she worries about phrasing

• She is unsure how to prepare for interviews and professional networking
   

She cannot afford professional career coaching, so she looks for other ways to improve.

​

How AI Helped Parbeen

​

Parbeen started using an AI chat tool on his laptop and mobile phone. She used it to:
 

• Draft a CV and cover letter tailored to UK employers

• Rewrite his experience in clear, professional English

• Prepare for interviews with sample questions and answers

• Learn tips for networking and presenting skills confidently
   

The AI gave her step-by-step suggestions and allowed her to practice safely. For example, it helped her rewrite her CV achievements in short, clear sentences and gave sample responses she could adapt in his own words for interviews.

​

Example Prompts Parbeen Used

​​

Initial Prompt:

​

“Write my CV for a higher-level office job.”

​

The AI’s first response was generic and formal. Some language was too complicated, and it did not match Rajveer’s current experience or the role he wanted.

​

Improved Prompt with Context:

​​

Rajveer realised the AI works best when she provides context. She uploaded his current CV and shared the job description for the role she wanted. Then she asked:

​​

“Help me update my CV and cover letter for this promotion in my UK office.

Use simple, professional English.
Align my current CV with the job description I uploaded.
Highlight my achievements, leadership skills, and relevant experience.
Avoid copying templates.”

​​

This helped the AI give answers that were specific, clear, and tailored to his situation.

​​

Interview Practice Prompt:

​​

“Based on this job description, give me 5 sample answers to common UK office interview questions.
Make the answers polite, professional, and clear.
Explain any difficult words in simple English.”

​​

How AI Helped​​

​​

With the improved, context-aware prompts, Parbeen saw real results:

​​

• CV and Cover Letter Aligned to the Role: Her CV now highlighted achievements and skills that matched the job description, making her a stronger candidate.

• Clear, Professional Language: AI simplified complex sentences and used professional English she could confidently submit.

• Tailored Interview Practice: The AI gave sample answers specifically related to the job, helping her prepare for questions she was most likely to be asked.

• Saved Time and Reduced Stress: Instead of starting from scratch, Parbeen could update her CV quickly and practise interviews without feeling overwhelmed.

• Improved Confidence: By practicing responses and seeing how her CV aligned with the role, she felt ready to apply and speak confidently in interviews.
   

AI acted as a personal career coach, helping Parbeen prepare strategically, practice safely, and present hirself effectively — all without replacing her own judgment or effort.
