ATS Resume Checker

How to use

1. Count the bullets on your resume that contain a number, percentage, or measurable result.
2. Count bullets that open with an action verb, and the posting keywords you genuinely match.
3. Note your page count, then answer yes or no for standard headings and complete contact details.
4. Run the check and read the verdict alongside the six contributing signals.
5. Fix the lowest-weighted gaps, then rescore after your edits.

About this tool

Applicant tracking systems restructure every document they receive, and certain formatting choices survive that process better than others. This checker scores six signals that influence parsing: quantified results, bullets opened with action verbs, keywords drawn from the posting, page count, standard section headings, and complete contact details. Enter counts from your current draft and the tool returns a rating from 0 to 100 with a plain verdict. Treat the number as a heuristic signal check, not a prediction of screening outcomes, because each employer configures its software differently and no outside tool can see inside it. The practical value is directional: if the rating lands low, the contributing signals tell you which fixable items to address first, usually keyword coverage, missing numbers, or headings that a parser will misread. Heuristic scoring based on common parsing behaviors; individual systems vary and results are indicative only.Parsers most often lose content stored in tables, text boxes, headers, footers, and custom bullet glyphs, so move anything important into the main body. Mirror only the keywords you can honestly evidence; fabricating matches backfires at interview. For ageing systems, a .docx upload tends to survive better than a heavily designed PDF.
