Know how well your resume matches the job.
Check your resume against a job description to identify keyword gaps, missing requirements, and potential formatting issues before applying.
How It Works
Three simple steps to check your resume before submitting applications.
Upload Your Resume
Upload your resume in PDF or Word (.docx) format. Our parser extracts the text purely in-memory with zero disk storage.
Paste the Job Listing
Copy and paste the job description you want to target. We identify key requirements, qualifications, and domain skills.
Review and Improve
Inspect matched terms, uncover missing keywords, verify section readability, and follow rule-based improvement suggestions.
Core Capabilities
Every score and recommendation comes from transparent logic, document parsing, and dictionary matching.
In-Memory Text Extraction
Extracts text from PDF and DOCX files securely in memory. Automatically detects unreadable scanned PDFs or corrupted layers.
Synonym & Alias Matching
Recognizes standard industry aliases like JS ↔ JavaScript and Postgres ↔ PostgreSQL while eliminating false substring matches.
Section Heading Detection
Identifies standard resume sections including Professional Summary, Work Experience, Skills, Education, Certifications, and Projects.
Required vs Preferred Coverage
Differentiates mandatory requirements from nice-to-have qualifications and redistributes scoring weights proportionally.
Readability & Formatting Checks
Flags low word counts, missing contact details, and repeated page headers that often scramble automated ATS resume parsers.
Actionable Recommendations
Actionable advice generated strictly through conditional programming rules and heuristic checks.
Your Privacy Is Protected
We treat uploaded resumes as confidential personal documents. Here is exactly how your data is handled:
