Resume Enhancement
When using the resume builder and testing the enhancement features, I found the process to be slightly confusing regarding how enhancements are applied and how resumes are saved.
-Under the “Your Resumes” column, my original resume appears first, and any enhancements I apply (light, strategic, expert) are added as new versions below it. However, all versions are labeled simply as "(User name) Resume," making it unclear which one is the original and which ones have been modified.
-When I used the light enhancement, I expected it to make changes to my original resume and save a new copy (which it did). But when I later chose the strategic enhancement, I expected it to apply that to the original again, not on top of the already light enhanced resume.
-I didn't realize that the system would stack enhancements unless I manually reselected the original resume in the list. This was not intuitive, and as a result, the second enhancement went beyond what I intended.
Suggestions to improve this:
-Label each resume clearly in the "Your Resumes" column. For example, "Original Resume," "Light Enhancement," "Strategic Enhancement (on Original)," or "Strategic Enhancement (on Light)."
-Add a visual indicator (like a star or “Original” tag) to make it obvious which one is the base resume.
-Include a prompt or warning before applying a new enhancement: "You are about to apply this enhancement on top of an already enhanced resume. Would you like to select a different base resume?"
-Consider auto reverting to the original after each enhancement by default, or at least give users that option.
That said, the tool is extremely impressive. It's not just powerful, it's incredibly useful and has the potential to be truly life changing for people trying to craft the perfect resume and land better opportunities. Amazing work!
