ATS Resume Checker

Paste the job description you are applying to and this compares it against your resume: which terms the posting leans on that your resume never uses, whether the sections a parser looks for are present, formatting that breaks automated parsing, and how many of your bullets are backed by a number. It is a keyword and parse-readiness check — not a simulation of any specific employer's software, because those systems are private and each one scores differently.

Common questions

What does this checker actually do?

It compares your resume against a specific job description and reports four things: which terms the job description leans on that your resume never uses, whether your resume has the sections a parser expects to find, formatting patterns that break automated parsing, and how many of your bullets are backed by numbers. It does not simulate any particular employer's software — no tool can, because those systems are private and score differently.

Is this a real ATS score?

It is a keyword and parse-readiness score, and we describe it that way deliberately. Applicant tracking systems are proprietary and each one ranks differently, so any product claiming to reproduce a specific vendor's score is guessing. What is genuinely checkable — keyword coverage and whether the file parses cleanly — is what this measures.

How many scans do I get?

Two free scans per calendar month. Premium accounts get unlimited scans, which is the point — you would run one per role you apply for.

Should I just stuff my resume with the missing keywords?

No. Add only the terms that are genuinely true of your experience, and work them into an experience bullet rather than padding a skills list. A human reads the resume after the parser does, and keyword stuffing is obvious to them.

Do I need to upload a file?

No. It uses the resume you already built here, or you can paste your resume text directly. Nothing is uploaded and no file is parsed.
