Meet Sarah, the forgetful recruiter. One day, her Hiring Manager gave her a stack of printed CVs to review. After hours of interviews, she tucked the folder under her arm and headed to her car. And the adventure begins!
She placed the folder on her car roof, hopped in, and drove off down the highway.
Any idea where those CVs ended up?
If you asked the basic ChatGPT model, it’d say, “Still on the car roof!”
So the CV is most likely on top of Sarah’s car in the folder…
Oops.
Is this the AI we trust? Yep. Just look at this version:
So it is unlikely that the CV remains on top of the car
That’s correct, but where is the magic?
Shall we pay for a ChatGPT subscription?
Shall we buy a new AI extension?
No! The magic is free and you can make your ChatGPT better with just a few sentences.
Use the “Customize GPT” feature, and you’ll see ChatGPT turn into a genius with the right instructions.
It’s easy and works on both free and paid versions of ChatGPT. Here’s how:
Top right corner, click on your name, then choose: Customize ChatGPT
The first question: “What would you like ChatGPT to know about you to provide better responses?”
Tell it about your job, what’s important to you, and your likes. For instance, I mentioned my love for satirical responses to keep things entertaining.
Here is the second question: “How would you like ChatGPT to respond?”
This one’s crucial. Here, you can define roles for ChatGPT and refer to them later. Just look at my roles I gave to ChatGPT:
Answer the 2 questions: who are you and what do you expect from ChatGPT
Firstly, ChatGPT will understand the context and switch roles accordingly. Secondly, you won’t have to repeat your instructions again and again with the same details in each of your requests.
This might not help Sarah, the dreamy recruiter, but at least everyone knows where the CVs are… In the second prompt, I told ChatGPT to act as a scientist (SC role) and as I defined it as a role with advanced reasoning, ChatGPT was able to find out what had happened.
So, take advantage of this fantastic feature! Click your name, fill in the fields, and meet your supercharged ChatGPT.
Happy Sourcing!
