Each document has instructions, questions, and space for your answers. The final document includes a common mistake to check for before using your work.
The worked case contains five completed documents, one for each worksheet. Follow the evidence, decisions, and corrections across the same fictional project. The case is included in the workbook, reading edition, Markdown example, and optional Notion import.
Your completion check
Verify role conditions and the application route, support each claim with honest personal contribution, retain gaps and submitted versions, and reconcile dated pipeline states without inventing hiring conclusions.
Before you finish
Check this before you use it
Sending more applications replaces checking role fit.
Review requirements first and record why each opportunity deserves effort.
Use the final worksheet to record what needs fixing and what you still need to check.
Purpose: choose where to spend application effort using the real vacancy and your own needs. Scores organize your options; they do not predict an employer's decision.
Target work/role family [ ]; title variants [ ]; demonstrated experience [ ]; practical non-negotiables [ ]; preferences [ ]; gaps you can investigate or learn [ ].
Role record: employer/title [ ]; original posting and employer/application destination checked [ ]; posting date/closing date/timezone [ ]; saved text/version [ ]. Keep unknown conditions unknown; do not assume a title guarantees the work or schedule.
Requirement | essential/preferred/unclear in posting | your evidence/gap | question/source | decision effect
[Requirement | actual wording | honest fit | verification | apply/investigate/skip]
Separate missing experience from an unclear requirement. Do not silently downgrade an explicitly essential qualification because other scores are high.
Optional comparison: relevant experience 0–2; interest in actual work 0–2; practical fit 0–2, with rationale for each. Use the same definitions across your roles and treat unknowns as unknown, not zero or a fabricated match. A failed non-negotiable can override the total; the score is not an applicant ranking supplied to the employer.
Destination/privacy check: use the employer's verified route and the requested materials; resolve an unverified destination before sending personal information. A route you cannot verify is not automatically proved fraudulent, but it is a reason to investigate/hold.
Decision: apply / investigate / skip [reason]. Next question owner/date [ ]; deadline [ ]; submitted-version reference if later applied [ ]. No application is sent by this worksheet, and no protected or sensitive personal characteristics are needed for the score.

This is the complete first worksheet from the current edition. The full kit adds the remaining four documents, a worked scenario, and the offline editing workbook, plus an optional Notion import ZIP with Markdown pages and CSV databases.
Worked example
See the worked-case summary
Fictional example included in edition 2.49.1.
Fictional case: Nora reviews six customer-operations roles, submits three evidence-based applications, investigates one unknown condition, and skips two unsuitable or unverified routes. One application reaches interview, one is pending, and one is rejected. Five completed documents include a requirement-to-evidence map, three full interview stories, three unsent follow-up drafts, and a reconciled review. Nora removes an unsupported percentage claim and keeps a preferred software skill gap visible; no hiring outcome is promised.
Before you choose
What should I have ready for this kit?
Bring target role examples, experience evidence, application deadlines. Mark anything you still need to check.
How do I know the work is finished?
An application tracker with supporting examples and dated next steps. Check your answers against the original records and note anything unresolved before sharing your work.
What is in the Notion import pack?
The download includes an optional NOTION-IMPORT.zip with authored Markdown page templates and sample-filled CSV databases. Import the files in Notion, then set field types and any database relations yourself. Alongside those files, you receive editable Markdown documents and an offline HTML workbook. Set up the imported pages and tables yourself. These are not native Excel, Canva, or Word templates. Extract the whole ZIP before opening the HTML files. Mobile file managers may not run local scripts; the text files and reading edition remain available.
Will this do the work for me?
The kit supplies structure, questions, and examples. You provide the facts, make the decisions, and adapt the finished output. You are responsible for checking the finished work. Custom implementation and professional review are not included.
