Write a job application from a finn.no ad
Ask Claude to pull the requirements out of a finn.no ad and draft an application in your voice. It should not invent roles or results you have not had.
Have the documents ready, and read the answer critically before you use it.
How to do it
- 1
Copy the ad from finn.no. Keep the job title, employer and deadline as written.
- 2
Write five to eight notes about yourself: roles you have had, tools you know, and one concrete example from work or study. Do not dress it up.
- 3
Ask the assistant to list the requirements in the ad, and which of your notes answer them. Anything not covered should stay a gap.
- 4
Ask for a draft of about one page, without clichés. Ask it to use your examples and no others.
- 5
Read it aloud, cut what does not sound like you, and check the deadline and how to apply in the ad before you send it.

Here is a job ad from finn.no: [Paste the ad] And here is what I have actually done: [Notes] First list the requirements in the ad and what in my background covers them. Do not add experience I have not written. Then write a plain application draft. No invented numbers, titles or quotes.
