Choose a target and prove your value
Translate experience into a realistic role target, evidence bank, and tailored résumé.
Choose a target role using actual postings and constraints.
Turn work, school, caregiving, service, and projects into evidence.
Build a résumé that is specific, readable, and truthful.
Make the example fit your situation.
Choose a practice context. This choice does not ask for or save your age.
Use genuine work, volunteering, study, or project examples to tailor your résumé to a realistic next role.
Convert a broad desire for better work into a testable target and an evidence-based application asset. This creates the input for the Week 5 pipeline.
Reuse your lesson work in the project. Optional videos and extended activities add time; these are planning estimates.

Why this lesson is here: Use your selected proof statements to revise a résumé for the target role, then check its reading order, dates, wording, and claims.
- 4spreadsheetStructure clean dataStart
Why this lesson is here: Put your Week 4 posting comparison and evidence bank in clean tables with one record per row, stable headers, and a useful ID. This prepares the same structure for Week 5’s opportunity tracker.
Test whether every strong claim can be supported with a concrete example. Never invent experience to fill a perceived gap.
Career target and résumé package
A target-role brief, working evidence bank, selected proof statements, and tailored résumé draft.
Name your target role, three recurring requirements, one gap, and a résumé revision. Build a working bank of 10 truthful evidence entries, then select 5 strong proof statements for the submitted career package. Use a clean table to organize the postings and evidence.
- Choose one target role family using 3–5 current postings or the clearly labeled fictional practice excerpts; identify three recurring requirements and one gap.
- Build a working bank of 10 truthful evidence entries, then select 5 strong proof statements for the submitted career package.
