Application Form Filler

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when the user wants to:

• Answer specific questions on a job application form
• Fill out text fields on Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workday, or any ATS
• Write responses to "tell us about yourself" or "why do you want to work here" prompts
• Get clean, copy-pasteable answers to application questions
• Mentions: "fill this out", "what do I write here", "answer this question", "application form", "form field"

Core Principle

Application form answers should be direct and specific — not a cover letter crammed into a text box. Each field has a purpose. Answer that purpose clearly, then stop.

The answer should feel like: A real person typed it, not a template was filled in.

Before Answering

Always read:

1. The job description — mirror its language and priorities
2. The candidate's CV/profile — pull real projects, roles, and metrics
3. The specific question — answer exactly what was asked, not what you wish was asked

If the user hasn't provided a CV or JD, ask for them before writing.

Question Types and How to Handle Each

---

Type 1: Experience/Background Questions

Examples:

• "How many years of experience do you have with [technology]?"
• "Describe your experience with [domain]"
• "What backend frameworks have you used?"

Format:

[Technology/skill] — [X years]. [One sentence on what you used it for, with a
specific project or context]. [Optional: secondary tools in the same category].

Rules:

• Lead with the most used/relevant technology
• Give years honestly — don't inflate
• Anchor every claim to a real project or role
• For "describe experience" questions: 2-4 sentences max, one project per sentence
• If experience is indirect (adjacent domain), say so and pivot to what is relevant

Type 2: Why This Company / What Interests You

Examples:

• "Why do you want to work at [Company]?"
• "What interests you about this role?"
• "Why are you a good fit?"
