From Layoff to Launch – The Story Behind ResumeBot
Hi, I’m Nishant, the creator of ResumeBot. Just a few months ago, I was in the same position as many job seekers out there—uncertain, frustrated, and suddenly in the job market again.
The Turning Point
In October 2024, I was laid off. It wasn’t just a job loss; it felt like a reset on my career. After years in the industry, I found myself back at square one, navigating job boards, tailoring resumes, and struggling to stand out in a competitive market.
Instead of dwelling on the setback, I saw an opportunity. I had always been passionate about AI, and starting January 1st, 2025, I dove into AI development—experimenting, learning, and building.
Two weeks later, ResumeBot was born.
What is ResumeBot?
ResumeBot is the tool I built for myself. It automates resume and cover letter creation using AI, so you can stop wasting hours tweaking documents and start focusing on landing interviews.
- 📌 Set up your profile once and instantly generate tailored resumes for any job.
- 📄 AI-generated cover letters that sound professional and personalized.
- 📊 Job tracking to keep tabs on where you've applied and follow up effectively.
- 🎨 Simple, effective resume templates that recruiters love.
- 📸 AI-generated headshots to make your profile look polished and professional.
No Subscriptions, No Hassle
The last thing job seekers need is another recurring expense. That’s why ResumeBot has **no subscriptions**—you simply pay for what you need. Whether it’s a single resume, a few, or more than few, you have full control of your career.
Why I Built This
I built ResumeBot because I know how hard job hunting is.I know what it’s like to feel stuck, to question if you’re doing enough, to wonder if your resume is even getting noticed.
This isn’t just another resume builder. It’s a tool designed by someone who needed it, for people who need it.
The Future of Job Searching
ResumeBot is just getting started. My goal is to keep improving it, making job applications faster, smarter, and more effective.Whether it’s refining AI-generated content, adding new templates, or introducing smart job-matching, this is a project built for job seekers, by a job seeker.
Thank you for being here. I hope ResumeBot helps you land your next big opportunity. 🚀
