Stumbled upon this post a while back:

And after getting entangled in the job hunting web for 7 freaking months post-grad, I thought: why not fight fire with fire?
Enter: Final Round AI. At first glance? Looks like they borrowed some style points from Chegg, haha.
Made an account (they're a bit stingy with the credits though). Had to resort to pestering my friends with referral links. If you're curious, here's mine (we'd both get some free sessions, and trust me, you'll want them):

Their AI is kinda slick. Not only tailors your resume and crafts cover letters, but it sneakily embeds over 30 job-relevant keywords. They're basically invisible to us mere mortals, but the ATS scanner? Eats it right up. Big salute to their team for this trick!
Here's a sneak peek (excuse the random Nasa stuff, was just goofing around): Before and after
The Interview Copilot Part: Okay, confession time – I chickened out using it for a real interview (yet). Instead, got a buddy to throw some curveball questions at me. Most AIs make you record and submit queries, right? Not this one. It's all real-time, baby. Answers shot back at lightning speed, just with a tad delay. But hey, a quick “Hmm, let me think” buys enough time. Plus, it's all bullet-point style, making it a breeze to digest and relay.
Planning on running a few more mock drills before diving into the real deal.
