Most people describe their work the way they talk in real life: short, plain, missing the impressive parts. Recruiters scan your resume in seconds, though, and plain sentences get skipped. Le Chat — Mistral's AI assistant — can take your rough notes and turn them into the kind of bullet point a hiring manager actually pauses on. You stay in charge of the truth; Le Chat just helps with the wording.

💡 Tip: tap a step’s number when you finish it — a green tick appears and your browser remembers how far you got.

✅ Before you start

A free Le Chat account (sign up with an email at Mistral's chat page).
A short, rough description of one thing you did at a job — even a single messy sentence is fine.
A web browser on a phone, tablet, or computer.
About ten minutes, and one promise to yourself: only put real numbers on your resume. Le Chat can suggest placeholders, but the final figures must come from your actual experience.

Step 1 of 6

Open Le Chat and start a fresh chat

Go to Le Chat in your browser and sign in if you aren't already. Once the page loads, look for a button labeled something like New chat or Start new conversation — usually at the top of the chat list on the left side of the screen, or shown as a plus icon. Tap or click it. A blank conversation opens, with an empty message box near the bottom often labeled something like Message Le Chat or Ask anything, though yours may use different words.

On a phone, the option is often tucked inside a menu icon (three lines or three dots) at the top-left.

🔄 If it looks different

If you can't find the new chat button, look for a pencil icon, a +, or a small chat bubble with a plus sign — those are the most common shapes.

✅ You'll know it worked when

you see a clean, empty chat screen with a blinking cursor in the message box and no previous messages in the list.

Step 2 of 6

Paste your rough description into the chat box

Click inside the message box at the bottom of the screen and type, or paste, one short sentence describing what you actually did at work. Don't worry about making it sound impressive yet — plain language is exactly what you want. You can write it the way you'd explain your job to a friend over coffee.

The text appears in the box as you type. If you paste from a notes app, you may see a short preview of how many characters you've added. Once you're happy with the description, you're ready for the next step — but don't hit send just yet.

💬 Example*"I helped customers with their bills and account questions at the front desk of a phone store for about two years."*

✅ You'll know it worked when

your sentence sits in the message box, ready to send, and the cursor is still blinking at the end.

Step 3 of 6

Ask Le Chat to rewrite it as a resume bullet

Now add a short instruction below your description telling Le Chat exactly what you want, then hit Enter or the send icon — usually a small paper airplane or upward arrow on the right edge of the text box. Le Chat reads your description plus your instruction and replies with one or more polished bullet points.

If your app has separate buttons for send versus new line, look for the send icon — it's almost always on the right side of the message box. On a phone, send often lives at the far right of the keyboard area rather than as a separate button.

💬 Examplefull message to send — *"I helped customers with their bills and account questions at the front desk of a phone store for about two years. Please rewrite this as 3 strong resume bullet points a recruiter would notice. Start each one with a strong action verb."*

✅ You'll know it worked when

Le Chat's reply appears below your message with three (or more) bullet lines, each starting with a verb like Resolved, Assisted, Handled, or Supported.

Step 4 of 6

Ask for a version with measurable impact

Strong resume bullets almost always include a number — how many, how much, how often. Send a short follow-up message asking Le Chat to add measurable impact, but with one clear honesty rule: tell it to use placeholders like [X%] or [# of customers] for anything you haven't actually measured. That way you don't accidentally paste in fake results that sound true.

Le Chat will write a new version of the bullets with placeholder numbers in square brackets. If the reply doesn't include placeholders, send a quick follow-up: "Please show numbers in brackets like [X%] so I can fill in real numbers from my own records."

💬 Example*"Now give me a stronger version with measurable impact. Put any numbers you don't know in brackets like [X%] or [# of customers] — I will fill in the real numbers myself."*

✅ You'll know it worked when

the new reply contains bullet points that include either real numbers or clear placeholders in brackets, never bare made-up figures you could mistake for real ones.

Step 5 of 6

Pick your favorite and ask for one more variation

Read Le Chat's reply and pick the bullet that sounds closest to your real experience. Copy that one. Then send a short follow-up asking Le Chat to tighten the wording — make it shorter, swap a weak verb for a stronger one, or combine two ideas into one line.

If two bullets both sound good, ask Le Chat to merge them. If none of them sound like you, ask for a version with a different tone (for example, "more formal" or "more friendly"). Le Chat will respond with a fresh draft you can compare against the earlier one.

💬 Example*"I like bullet #2 the best. Please make it slightly shorter and swap 'helped' for a stronger verb. Keep it to one line under 25 words."*

✅ You'll know it worked when

you can clearly see one bullet point that sounds like you on a strong day, fits on one line, and would make a recruiter pause for half a second longer than the rest of your CV.

Step 6 of 6

Save the final line and repeat with your next bullet

Copy your finished bullet into your resume document. Add a tiny note to yourself, like an asterisk * next to it, so you remember this one came from a Le Chat draft and still wants a quick personal read-through. Then start the cycle again with the next plain sentence from your work history.

If you're not happy with the final line, send one more message asking Le Chat to combine your favorite two drafts into one bullet. The trick is to keep iterating in small steps rather than asking for a "perfect" version in one go — small requests give cleaner results.

💬 Example(next round): *"Now do the same for this bullet: 'answered phones and took messages for a real estate office'. Rewrite as one strong resume line with placeholders for any numbers."*

✅ You'll know it worked when

you have one polished bullet sitting in your resume, you've starred it for review, and you've already sent a fresh prompt to Le Chat for the next one — momentum is what makes this faster than staring at a blank page.

⚠️ Common mistakes

Letting Le Chat invent real numbers. It may try to fill in plausible figures (like "20% increase") that sound true but aren't. Always use the bracket-placeholder trick from Step 4, then add only numbers you can prove.
Writing bullets that sound nothing like you. If the final line uses five-dollar words or industry jargon you never use at work, ask Le Chat to rewrite in your own everyday voice — recruiters can spot fake-sounding CVs in seconds.
Doing all your bullets in one giant prompt. Long prompts give vague replies. One plain sentence plus one clear instruction per bullet is faster, cleaner, and far easier to fix when something is off.

🚀 Try it now

Open Le Chat, paste the roughest sentence you can write about one thing you did at your last job, and add this line below it: "Rewrite this as one strong resume bullet a recruiter would notice, with action verb, task, and result." Send it. You'll have your first improved bullet before your coffee gets cold.
