The short answer
AI can help organise information and suggest wording, but you remain responsible for every claim. Start from your real experience rather than asking it to invent an impressive history.

Compare the draft against your original notes.
Work through the task using your own situation. Note what you can already demonstrate and what you still need to check. If an instruction in the vacancy or your workplace changes the approach, use that instruction.
A practical example
Reject a generated sales percentage if you never measured it, even when the sentence sounds convincing.
This is an illustration, not a claim about your experience. Replace it with an example you can support, and explain the details in your own words.
Keep judgement and ownership with people
Use generated text as material to examine. Decide what a good result means before you accept it. An educational example is not a promise that a tool will secure an interview, remove bias or replace professional judgement.
- Check the tool and employer rules.
- Minimise personal and confidential inputs.
- Verify claims against records or reliable sources.
