How to Talk to Junior
Junior works best when you talk to it like a colleague. No special commands or syntax needed.
Junior works best when you talk to it like a colleague, not a search engine. No special commands or syntax needed.
Be specific about what you want
Instead of "help me with marketing," try "draft 3 LinkedIn post variations about our new product launch, targeting engineering managers."
Give context upfront
Junior remembers your past conversations, but for new tasks, a sentence of context goes a long way.
- "We're launching next Tuesday. Write an internal announcement for the team."
- "Our Q2 goal is 500 signups. Summarize which channels are working."
Set expectations clearly
Format, length, tone: say it upfront.
- "Keep it under 200 words."
- "Write this as bullet points, not paragraphs."
- "Professional tone, no jargon."
Share examples
The fastest way to show Junior what good looks like is to share a reference:
- "Here's a blog post I liked the tone of. Write something similar."
- "Use the same format as last week's report."
Break big projects into steps
For complex work, give one step at a time. Review, then move on.
- "Research the top 5 competitors in our space"
- "Based on that, draft a comparison table"
- "Turn it into a one-page summary for leadership"
Correct and refine
Junior keeps full conversation context. Just tell it what to change:
- "Too formal. Make it more casual."
- "Good structure, but the intro needs to be stronger."
- "Add a section about pricing."
One task per message works best
Junior will try to handle multiple requests at once, but focused asks get better results.
