ATS resume checker focused on what systems actually read
Applicant tracking systems mostly store and search your resume text. They are not mysterious scoring robots, and many myths circulate about invisible keywords and special formats.
This checker concentrates on the practical part: does your resume text contain the skills and terms in the job post? You get matched terms, missing terms and honest gaps.

AI can make mistakes. It is told to use only facts in your resume, but read every line and remove anything untrue before you send it. A match score is an estimate, not an employer score.
How to use it
- Paste your resume as plain text.
- Paste the job post.
- Run the checker and read the match and gap lists.
- Fix real omissions, keep a simple single-column layout, and save as PDF or DOCX as the application asks.
Tips
- Use standard headings: Experience, Education, Skills.
- Avoid putting key info only in headers, footers or images.
- Skip white-text keyword stuffing. Humans see it later and it hurts you.
AI can make mistakes. Verify every claim before you publish or send it.
