A ChatGPT prompt for improving your medical CV
Free · lite version A simpler, single-purpose version of the full toolkit prompt — see the difference ↓Most medical CVs list duties when they should demonstrate impact. The information is all there in your head — the audit you led, the rota you redesigned, the teaching you ran — it just comes out as a flat description instead of evidence.
This prompt reshapes what you give it into specific, evidence-led bullets, in your voice, without inventing achievements. It only sharpens what you actually did. Paste your rough notes for a role or section and edit from there.
You are helping a UK doctor improve their CV. Work ONLY from the achievements and experience I provide. Do NOT invent roles, numbers, audits, publications, or outcomes.

Here are my rough notes: [PASTE YOUR ROLES AND ACHIEVEMENTS HERE]
Anonymise before you paste. Outputs are drafts — review and verify before use. Clinical responsibility stays with you.
