Let’s go from “Where do I start?” to “Look what I built!”

Bring one task you keep explaining to AI. In 90 minutes, we’ll build an agent for it together. Then you’ll try it on a fresh example while I’m still there to help.

A former colleague texts, “I’ve got a role in mind for you. Can you send me your résumé?” You open the file. A job you left ten years ago still gets half a page. The project you rescued last spring? Nowhere on it.

This is where I’d put Claude to work. Before you ask it to write a single bullet, have it interview you about that project. What was going wrong when you stepped in? Which decision was yours? What changed afterward, and where could you check the result? Save those answers. That’s the start of what I call a fact bank.

In the full guide, I give you the prompts to build that fact bank, decide what deserves space for one specific role, and have Claude read the draft like a hiring manager. Try the first step with one recent win today, while the details are still fresh.

You’re leaving here with something 👀

A little nod to Denzel’s Oscars story with Jamie Foxx.

Open Claude and paste this: “Interview me about one project I’m proud of. Ask me one question at a time until we can say what I did, what changed, and how I know.” Save the answer. You’ve got the first entry in your résumé fact bank.
