- Fix the red and orange items, add missing keywords where they truthfully apply, and check again.
How applicant tracking systems read your resume
Most companies use an applicant tracking system (ATS) to collect and rank resumes before a person sees them. If the ATS cannot read your file, or it does not find the keywords from the job ad, your resume can be ranked low — however qualified you are.
This checker extracts the text the way an ATS does and tests the things that matter: readable text, standard section headings, contact details, clear dates, bullet points that start with action verbs, measurable results and a simple layout. Paste the job description to see exactly which keywords are missing.
Your resume is analysed privately in your browser — it is never uploaded or stored.
