Job Match & ATS Check: see what's missing

Paste a job description alongside your resume and get a concrete score for how ready it is — plus exactly what's missing — before you apply.

What it does

It checks your resume against a real job posting and reports a match score, missing keywords, and specific recommendations — not just a vague "looks good."

How it's made

It runs in two layers. The first is a free, offline check that runs the instant you open the page: a set of structural checkpoints scored directly against your resume data — full name present, professional title, quantified achievements, action verbs, skills organized by category, and more — with no network call and no AI involved. Pasting a job description and clicking "Check job match" additionally sends your resume and the job text to the AI, which returns a match score along with missing keywords and recommendations specific to that posting.

How to use it

  1. Make sure your resume is filled in through the builder first.
  2. Open Job Match & ATS Check.
  3. See your baseline structural score immediately — no job description required.
  4. Paste the job description you're targeting and click "Check job match."
  5. Review the missing keywords and recommendations, then go update your resume.

What you get

A checkpoint-by-checkpoint view of what's actually missing from your resume before you apply, grounded in your real content, not a guess.
