Read this before you trust any score
Real ATS vendors do not publish their parsers, so no third-party tool can replicate them. This checker tests the observable rules those parsers rely on and shows its workings.
1. Your resume
Upload a PDF or DOCX, or paste the text. Files are parsed in memory and never stored.

2. Target job description
Paste the advert to unlock keyword coverage — it is the largest single component of the score (30 of 100 points).
This is a heuristic, not a real ATS. We do not have access to Workday, Greenhouse or Taleo. The score measures the properties public parsers depend on, and every point is itemised below.
Recover a resume from a bad PDF
If text extraction comes back nearly empty, your PDF is probably a scan. The checker tells you rather than scoring an empty document.
Fix the cheap points first
Missing section headings and undated roles usually cost more points than any single missing keyword. The fix list is ordered by impact.
Do not keyword-stuff
A requirement that is not true of your experience should stay missing. Recruiters can spot a stuffed resume in the first interview.
Want the resume fixed rather than diagnosed?
The builder gives you the same structure the checker rewards — standard headings, dated roles, clean single-column text.
