For liberal arts students & recent graduates

[]

You did the work. Now get the words.

Most career tools extract skills from a resume. Unbracket helps you discover them — through structured reflection on the essays, seminars, projects and jobs you already did.

Built with AI, intentionally. Here's why →

How it works

Four steps, in your own words.

  1. [ Reflect through guided prompts ]

    Short, specific questions surface the choices you made, the constraints you worked within, and the people you moved. Unbracket helps you discover the skills you already have.

  2. [ Bring one piece of your work ]

    A seminar paper, a thesis chapter, a group project, a summer job, a club you led. Anything you actually did — not a resume bullet.

  3. [ See your skills, translated ]

    Unbracket suggests the capabilities living inside your reflection and drafts resume-ready bullets.

  4. [ Build your story ]

    The report closes with an interview story to prepare and the evidence to document — so every bullet has something real standing behind it.

What you'll uncover

Skills you already have, with evidence attached.

Specific capabilities, each tied to a real moment from your education you can put on a resume.

Questions

The ones we get most.

Is this another AI resume rewriter?

No. Unbracket doesn't rewrite what's already on your resume — it starts before the resume, with the work itself. The output is the skills you already have, translated into the language employers look for, with drafted bullet points you can add to your resume.

Do I need to know what career I want first?

No. Most of our users don't. Unbracket is designed to be useful before you've decided — the reflection produces a durable map of what you can do, which you can then aim in different directions.

Will it make my liberal arts degree sound like a business degree?

No. That's the failure mode we're built against. Unbracket names your skills in language recruiters recognize without stripping out what made the work yours in the first place.

What does it cost?

Unbracket is currently invite only. Join the waitlist, and we'll let you know when we launch. We'll share pricing before we ask anyone to pay.

Will this work if I'm a grad student or faculty member?

Partly. Unbracket is built for undergraduates and recent graduates, and the reflection and skill framing are tuned to that stage. Grad students often still get useful results, especially from coursework, teaching, and research. A version designed for faculty and others with deeper, more specialized experience is something we're building — it's not ready yet.

How are the reports generated?

You answer a short series of reflection questions about work you've actually done — papers, projects, jobs, roles. Unbracket uses AI to name the skills living inside what you describe and draft resume-ready language for each one, always tied to a specific piece of evidence. It never invents numbers: where a line needs one, it leaves a bracketed blank for you to fill in. It's guided reflection, not a resume scanner.

What does 'liberal arts' mean?

It's the broad group of fields focused on reading, writing, analysis, and reasoning rather than a single vocational track — the humanities (English, history, philosophy, languages, the arts) and the social sciences. If your degree taught you to work with ideas, sources, and arguments, it's probably liberal arts, and Unbracket is built for you.

Will this work if I have a STEM degree?

Though Unbracket is designed with liberal arts students in mind, our tests show that it responds well to STEM profiles as well. It may even help you identify some of the skills emphasized in liberal arts majors that could help differentiate your application from other STEM majors.

How should I format my resume once I have my Unbracket language?

Unbracket gives you the words; formatting is up to you, and simple wins. Use a clean, single-column layout in a standard font, list your experience in reverse chronological order, and keep it to one page while you're early-career. Replace every bracketed placeholder with a real number from your own work before you send it — a resume with [ ] still in it isn't finished. Mirror the language of the specific job posting you're applying to, save and send it as a PDF unless the employer asks otherwise, and avoid heavy design, tables, or graphics that applicant-tracking systems can misread. The goal is for a recruiter to scan it in a few seconds and see the skills, tied to real evidence.
