GitHub Copilot CLI Challenge Submission

This is a submission for the GitHub Copilot CLI Challenge

What I Built

I built ResumeTarget AI - A tool to help you tailor your resume to a specific job in minutes. With the help of Copilot CLI, I built an entire Next.js, FastAPI. Postgres MVP and deployed it to EC2 with Terraform!

Problem Statement & Solution

I had a challenge applying to tech jobs and realised I had to apply to tens, if not hundreds, before I could secure an interview. For each application, I've had to customise my résumé to the target role (as defined by the job description). This was tedious and time-consuming. I decided to build a tool that leverages AI to help me tailor my résumés quickly and effectively. I have completed building the AI résumé builder. Now I'm working on the job description matching and résumé scoring feature to help score résumés for a target job. For this, I'm using Sentence Transformers to compute cosine similarities between résumé sections and job descriptions. I'm also using LLMs for résumé suggestions.
