What academic-cv-builder does

Academic CVs differ fundamentally from standard resumes. They span multiple pages and document an entire scholarly trajectory. This skill provides explicit blueprints for curriculum vitae sections, adapting the order according to whether the applicant targets a research, teaching, or administrative appointment.

The prompt covers nuanced formatting conventions for scholarship. It specifies bolding the applicant name, flagging student co-authors with asterisks, and splitting grant funding by laboratory allocation. Because the skill relies entirely on your input, you must supply your raw publication lists, DOIs, and ORCID identifiers directly to the assistant.

What it helps with

  • organize a full curriculum vitae for postdoc or faculty applications
  • categorize publications into journal articles, book chapters, and preprints
  • detail grant history with funding agency names, roles, and lab shares
  • document courses taught along with student mentoring records

Example prompts for the agent

  • Format an academic CV for a tenure-track faculty application from my publication list and notes.
  • Rearrange my CV to put teaching experience and course design before research.
  • Structure this list of grants showing my role as PI and the funding amount.
