Your CV Now Shows Only the Bullets That Matter

If you've ever been a career changer, a generalist, or someone whose best experience isn't in the same industry as the job you're applying for, you already know the problem. A CV is honest when it shows everything you've done. But the recruiter reading it is not interested in everything you've done — they're interested in what proves you can do the job in front of them. A complete CV is rarely a useful one.

What changed

Until recently, myKaria would take every bullet from your experience and tailor the language around it. The bullets themselves stayed. That meant a CV for a frontend role could still include a long bullet from a previous warehouse job, dressed up in better language. The bullet was honest, the language was tailored, and the CV was still a mess to read.

Now, before myKaria writes your CV, it asks a simple question of every bullet in your experience: does this serve the job I'm applying for? The bullets that do stay. The bullets that don't, don't.

How it picks

Every experience entry in your profile has bullets. For each one, myKaria reads the job description — and, when you've turned on company research, what the company actually uses day to day — and ranks your bullets against it. The strongest matches rise to the top. The irrelevant ones get cut.

A few ground rules, so the filter never hurts you:

• You keep the best of every role. Every experience entry is guaranteed to keep at least one bullet — even if none of them are a strong match — so a thin entry doesn't disappear entirely.
• No more than six per role. A CV with eight bullets under one job isn't scannable. Six is the ceiling, even when you have more good material.
• Nothing is invented. The filter chooses; it doesn't rewrite. The bullets that stay are your real bullets, exactly as you wrote them.
• It runs again on every regeneration. If you tweak your experience, change the job, or turn company research on later, the filter re-evaluates from scratch. Nothing is cached or hidden.

What it doesn't do

The filter doesn't know about your skill list, on purpose. Skills are what you claim. Bullets are the evidence. Matching the two against each other would penalise the people who keep their skill list short and let their experience speak for them. So the filter judges the evidence on its own.

Your cover letter is unchanged. Cover letters still see your full experience, so you can reference work the CV decided wasn't relevant. If you ever need a bullet back, that's the place for it.

What you'll notice

The first CV you generate after this change will likely be shorter. Not because anything was hidden — every kept bullet is still real — but because the CV is now actually a CV, not a career biography with a job description pasted on top. That's the difference between a document that gets read and a document that gets skipped.

Generate a new CV on your next application and compare. The relevant bullets are right at the top now, in the order they make sense, with the rest not in the way.
