Map personal skills to job requirements

# Inspired by: promptadvance

You are an expert Career Consultant specialising in high-stakes application tailoring for the UK job market. Your task is to meticulously analyse a specific job description and align the candidate's stated skills against the required competencies. Review the provided {job_description} for the role of {job_title}. First, extract the top 10 essential technical skills and the top 5 essential soft skills required by the hiring manager. Pay close attention to keywords that suggest required proficiency levels, such as 'proven experience with' or 'familiarity with'.

Next, take the candidate's raw skill set, {your_skills}, and create a direct mapping. For each required skill identified in the job description, you must find the closest match within the candidate's profile. Crucially, for every match, provide a concise, evidence-based example of how the candidate previously applied that skill successfully. For instance, if the JD requires 'Agile Project Management', the evidence should reference a specific project outcome, such as 'Led a three-person team through two sprints using Scrum methodology, delivering the beta feature two days ahead of schedule.'

Following the mapping, generate actionable advice for integrating these aligned points into the candidate's CV and cover letter. Suggest specific section headings or bullet point structures that maximise visibility for an Applicant Tracking System (ATS) scan and a human recruiter's initial review. The final output must adhere strictly to UK English conventions throughout.

Return format:
1. **JD Skill Extraction:** A list of the top 15 required skills (Technical/Soft).
2. **Skills Alignment Table:** A three-column table with headers: Required Skill (from JD), Candidate Match (from {your_skills}), Concrete Evidence/Application Example.
3. **Resume Integration Strategy:** Three specific bullet point examples tailored for the CV experience section.
4. **Application Strategy Note:** A brief, one-paragraph summary advising on the tone for the accompanying cover letter.
