The way I've found out works best after dog fooding the tool for a while (for resumes, cover letters, etc) is to take an iterative approach to it.

- Start with the minimal amount of info needed.

- Let it generate a "first draft" that acts more as inspiration.

- Fill in a bit more details in various paragraphs. Let it expand on it.

- Delete things that aren't needed.

- Add things you might've initially forgotten about.

- Iterate for a short while and get to hopefully a decent result.

The idea being that the first draft won't ever be perfect. You need a few tries to get to something that's good and truthful for the situation at hand.

But that's a dataset of N=1.
