[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).
Audit my resume translated from military service. Resume: [RESUME_TEXT]. Original role descriptions or evaluations (remove sensitive detail): [SERVICE_DESCRIPTIONS]. Civilian roles I want: [TARGET_ROLES]. Check for rank titles and acronyms that civilians will not understand, duties not turned into skills and outcomes, leadership scope not translated into team size or budget, and security-sensitive details that should not appear. Check that qualifications map to civilian equivalents without overstating them. Return a glossary of terms to replace, a table of Original wording, Civilian wording and Risk of overstatement, and a score from 1 to 10 for clarity and credibility. Remind me to leave out classified or restricted information and to confirm civilian equivalents of qualifications with the issuing body [VERIFY]. Also check that the summary leads with the civilian role I want and not with the service history, that dates and ranks are consistent, and that awards are explained in one phrase. Flag any term that might be classified or restricted, and suggest I ask a former colleague outside the service to read it cold.
