Values-Mapped CV
Many companies publish what they reward: leadership principles, values, a culture page. Screeners and interviewers are often trained on exactly that list. This skill maps the person's real achievements to it, so the CV leads with the right evidence. It never turns values into adjectives.
Part of the pm-cv bundle. Used by company-tailored-cv.
What This Skill Produces
The values list, quoted from the company's public page, with the link and the date checked
An evidence map: each value, the achievements that show it, and how strongly
The achievement order for the CV, chosen by this map and the job ad together
Gaps: values with no evidence, and whether that matters for this role
Required Inputs
Ask for these if not provided:
The company, and the page where its values are published, or permission to look them up
The person's achievements: a career-inventory file or a CV
The job ad, because the role's must-haves still come first
Framework
Find the published list. Use the company's own careers or about pages. If there is none, say so and stop: do not invent values from news articles or reviews.
Quote it exactly and record the date. Values change.
Map. For each achievement, which values does it show? Rate each link:
Direct: the achievement is a clear example a stranger would recognise
Supporting: it shows the value in part
Stretch: only with explanation. Do not use on the CV; keep for interview
Choose. Lead each recent role with the achievement that answers both a job-ad must-have and a value directly.
Write. The CV shows the value through the result. The value's name does not appear as a self-description.
Output Format
Values map: [company], [role]
Source: [link], checked [date]
1. Evidence map | Value (quoted) | Achievement | Strength | Use on CV? |
2. Achievement order for the CV, per role, with the reason for the first bullet
3. Values without evidence | Value | Matters for this role? | What would show it |
4. Interview prompts: the stretch links, as stories to prepare
Quality Checks
The values are quoted from the company's own page, with link and date
Every mapped achievement came from the person
No value appears on the CV as an adjective about the person
Job-ad must-haves still lead where they conflict with values
Anti-Patterns
Inventing values from reviews, news or memory.
Adjective CVs. "Customer-obsessed, bias for action" proves nothing and reads as copied.
Forcing every value. Three strong links beat twelve weak ones.
Ignoring the job. Values decide the order, not the content. The role's requirements come first.
Example Trigger Phrases
