Sales Resume Audit for Quota Evidence

Audit a sales resume for quota evidence, checking that numbers are specific, honest and comparable across roles.

Added October 15, 2026. Written with AI assistance and checked for clarity and placeholders; not reviewed by a lawyer, accountant, clinician or other professional. How these prompts are made

The Open buttons send the prompt text as currently shown below to that site only when you click. Fill in the placeholders first.

[VERIFY] is an editorial flag, not a blank to fill. Wherever the prompt shows [VERIFY], check that item against a reliable source before you use it (what [VERIFY] means).

Review my sales resume for credibility of results. Resume: [RESUME_TEXT]. Quota, territory and product context for each role: [CONTEXT]. Metrics I can document: [DOCUMENTED_METRICS].

For every achievement, test whether it states the baseline, the period, the denominator and how it compares to the team. Flag percentages without a base, revenue without a time frame, rankings without a field size, and claims a reference could contradict. Check that role scope (segment, deal size, sales cycle) is visible.

Return a table with Claim, Missing context, Credibility score from 1 to 10 and Rewrite. Add a short list of numbers I should confirm with former employers or records before sending, and warn me not to round up. Use [ADD NUMBER] wherever the context is not supplied.

Add a check for the story across roles: do results grow with responsibility, and does the sequence of employers explain itself? Flag any year where results are missing and suggest a truthful way to explain it, with the evidence I could bring to an interview to support each number.

Then prepare the evidence file and interview answers. Create a table for each claimed result with the source document, such as a report, an email or a manager's statement, and mark those I can produce and those I cannot. Write a clear explanation of how quota was set in each role, the market conditions, and my share of team success, so that numbers can be understood fairly. Draft answers of under 120 words to five questions an interviewer will ask about the biggest deal, the biggest loss, how I build pipeline, how I handle objections and what I would do in the first ninety days. Suggest how to describe a role with a poor year honestly, with context and learning. Add a note on confidentiality of customer names and pricing. Remind me not to inflate figures, and to confirm what I can share about former employers [VERIFY].
