How applicant tracking systems read your resume

Most companies filter applications with an applicant tracking system (ATS) before a person reads them. The ATS looks for the skills, tools and job titles named in the job description, so a strong candidate can be filtered out for describing the same skill in different words.

Using the job description's own language, wherever it is true for you, is the simplest way to get past the filter.

Rewrite bullets around impact

Recruiters skim. Bullets that start with a strong verb and end with a result stand out: 'Cut checkout load time by 40% by moving to server rendering' beats 'Worked on checkout performance'.

The rewrites leave [brackets] where a number would help. Fill them with real figures only.

Be honest about gaps

The matcher shows what you are missing so you can decide what to do: learn it, point to related experience or address it in your cover letter. Never add skills you do not have; interviews find out quickly.

Guides and services

Questions

Frequently asked

What is an ATS?+

An applicant tracking system: software companies use to collect, filter and rank job applications, largely by matching keywords from the job description.

What is a good resume match score?+

There is no universal cut-off. A resume that covers most of the job's must-have skills, in the job description's own words, has a much better chance of reaching a recruiter. Close the must-have gaps first.

Should I tailor my resume for every job?+

Yes, at least the summary, the skills section and the top bullets of your latest role. A tailored resume matches more keywords and shows the recruiter you read the posting.

Will it add skills I don't have?+

No. Rewrites only use experience already in your resume, phrased in the job's language. Missing skills are listed as gaps for you to decide on.

Is this tool free?+

Yes. Every tool on this site is free with no sign-up. Each visitor gets 10 runs of each AI tool per day, which keeps the tools fast and available for everyone. The tools that use no AI have no daily limit.

Is what I paste saved or shared?+

No. Your input is sent to the AI model (Claude by Anthropic) only to generate your result, and it is not stored on this site. Still, do not paste passwords, financial details or anything confidential.
