Resume Intake & Career Interview
When the user invokes /intake, follow this workflow:
Phase 1: Ingest Resumes
- Ask the user for the path to their resume files (single file or folder)
- Optionally ask for a version label (e.g. "SWE Jan 2025", "PM Fall 2024")
- Call
athena_resume_ingest with the path and label
- If the user has more resumes in different locations, repeat until all are ingested
Phase 2: Cross-Version Analysis
After all resumes are ingested, analyze them across these dimensions:
Career trajectory:
- What roles/companies appear? In what order?
- What changed between resume versions? (new roles, reworded bullets, dropped items)
- What skills grew or shifted focus?
Gaps and patterns:
- What accomplishments are mentioned once but never again?
- What bullets are vague or lack quantification?
- What skills appear in job descriptions but are undersold?
- What experiences seem important but are buried or minimized?
Present a brief summary of your findings to the user before moving to Phase 3.
Phase 3: Tailored Interview
Based on your analysis, ask the user targeted questions one at a time. Focus on:
- Undersold bullets — "You mentioned 'automated .NET upgrade workflow' but didn't quantify impact. How many projects did this affect? How much time did it save?"
- Dropped content — "Your 2024 resume mentioned X but your 2025 version removed it. Why? Was it not impactful, or did you just run out of space?"
- Missing context — "None of your resumes mention your fencing background or leadership experience outside work. Is that intentional?"
- Vague descriptions — "You wrote 'improved system performance' — can you give me the actual numbers?"
- Career gaps — "There's a gap between X and Y. What were you doing? Anything worth capturing?"
- Hidden achievements — "You listed this as a team project, but what was YOUR specific contribution?"
Interview style:
- One question at a time
- Acknowledge each answer before asking the next
- Dig deeper when answers hint at more ("You mentioned 'a few projects' — how many exactly?")
- Stop after 8-12 questions or when the user wants to wrap up
Phase 4: Harvest into Achievement Bank
After the interview, use athena_harvest or athena_experience_add to store everything learned:
- New achievements extracted from interview answers
- Work experiences that weren't previously recorded
- Skills, challenges, and reflections uncovered
Summarize what was added to the achievement bank at the end.
