ATS résumé checker
ATS résumé checker
An ATS résumé checker compares your résumé to a specific job posting and reports how well it will parse and rank. ResumePro™ scores four things independently — ATS match, human authenticity, role fit, and overclaim risk — and rewrites the exact lines dragging each score down.
What is an ATS résumé checker?
What the checker looks at
ATS match
Compares your résumé against the exact posting: required skills, tools, titles, and phrasing. It lists the keywords woven in and the ones still missing, and checks that the layout is single-column and parser-safe.
Human authenticity
Flags the patterns recruiters read as AI filler — inflated adjectives, repeated sentence shapes, buzzword padding — and rewrites them in plain, specific language.
Role fit
Measures how closely your actual experience matches the seniority and scope of the role, and names the gaps you may need to address in the cover letter or interview.
Overclaim risk
Catches lines that stretch past what your history supports, so nothing on the page falls apart under questioning.
Why résumés fail an ATS
- Multi-column layouts, tables, text boxes, and graphics that the parser cannot read in order.
- Contact details placed inside a header or footer, where many parsers never look.
- Job titles and skills phrased differently from the posting, so the keyword match falls short.
- Missing dates or inconsistent date formats, which break the work-history fields.
- Achievements with no numbers, leaving nothing for a recruiter to compare.
