Everyone's using AI for this
In India, using AI at work is already common. In a BCG survey of more than 10,600 workers across 11 countries, published in June 2025, 92% of respondents in India said they used AI regularly, the highest level in the survey, against 72% overall.
So it's no surprise that students use it to prepare for placements. The tools help. What slows you down is starting each new chat from nothing.
Two things you keep repeating
Look at the first message of your last few chats. It probably mixes two things:
- Your background: degree, branch, year, projects, internships, skills, the roles you're applying for.
- How you want answers: tone, length, British or American spelling, "give me options before rewriting", "don't invent experience I don't have".
They need different fixes. The first is facts about you, and you should control them. The second is a pattern that shows up across your chats, and Uncook can pick it up for you.
Never let an AI add to your CV.
An AI can rephrase what you did. It shouldn't add a skill, a project or a number you can't back up in an interview. Read every line before you send it.
Your background: keep one master note
Write your background once, in a note you keep yourself:
ABOUT ME Degree and year: [B.Tech, Computer Science, final year] Projects: [project 1, what you did, the result] Internship: [where, what you did] Skills: [the ones you can show] Applying for: [roles]
Update it after each new project or internship, and paste it at the start of a new chat. Most AIs also have settings where you can save something like this, such as custom instructions in ChatGPT; check what each one keeps and for how long.
Your style: let Uncook write an AI profile
Uncook's AI Profile reads chats where you've asked, revised and chosen, and turns them into a writing profile: how you like answers written, with a short quote or a count from your chats behind each point. Something seen only once is marked as such, not treated as a habit.
With the Uncook extension, open a few of your CV and cover-letter chats in ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini, click the Uncook icon and choose AI Profile. You get a profile written as a prompt. Review it, then paste it at the top of a new chat, or into the AI's settings.
The profile is about how you communicate, not the content of your projects. Your CV details stay in your master note. Because you paste the profile yourself, you can use it in any AI, including ones Uncook doesn't read.
Use your own words in the end
AI is good for a first draft, for questions you might be asked and for finding what's weak in a CV. The final version should sound like you, because the person interviewing you will expect the same voice. Read it aloud, cut what you wouldn't say, and check every fact.
Questions people ask
Will AI Profile remember my CV? No. It describes how you write and what you ask for. Keep your background in your own note and paste it when you need it.
AI Profile — Free with an account, within its own reading and usage limits. It uses no tasks from your balance.
Can I use the profile in Gemini or Claude as well? Yes. It's plain text: paste it into any AI.
We don't keep the conversations you bring. When you click Send to Uncook in the extension window, the extension sends the chat from your tab to our servers, encrypted, for up to 30 minutes, and we delete it as soon as your Uncook page opens it. What Uncook makes from it is kept as a task, for as long as our Privacy page says. Neither your chats nor your tasks are used to train AI models.
