# Resume Tailoring Skill
## Overview
Generates high-quality, tailored resumes optimized for specific job descriptions while maintaining factual integrity. Builds resumes around the holistic person by surfacing undocumented experiences through conversational discovery.
**Core Principle:** Truth-preserving optimization - maximize fit while maintaining factual integrity. Never fabricate experience, but intelligently reframe and emphasize relevant aspects.
