Career transitions get messy when your resume doesn't match your target industry's expectations. This tool rewrites your experience in the language recruiters actually use—your EdTech background becomes finance-relevant, your coding skills translate to business analysis. It finds the transferable skills hiring managers search for and builds them into what you've already done. Your story stays yours, just told in a way your new field understands.
Hundreds of people apply for the same job you want. Your resume needs to beat both the software and the humans reviewing it. The tool reads job postings to catch the specific keywords and phrases that count, then adds them where they'll do the most good. You can hit 98-100 out of 100 by getting not just the right words in there, but putting them in the right spots. Your experience stays the same—it just lines up better with what the company wants.
Technical jobs need resumes that put hard skills front and center. This tool gives technical competencies 60% of your total score, so your programming languages, frameworks, and tools get noticed. It spots gaps between what you have and what the job wants, then helps you show relevant experience you probably downplayed. Technical roles get 86%+ match rates because the system knows how engineering teams actually review candidates.
Read through the job description like you mean it. The phrases that show up over and over? Those aren't accidents. Companies repeat what they care about most. Grab the keywords that actually match your background and work them into your resume where they make sense.
Now put your CV next to their requirements and see what's missing. You're not looking for skills you don't have—you're looking for skills you buried or described differently. Maybe you wrote "managed timelines" when they said "project coordination." Same thing, different words. Hunt down these disconnects and align them.
Rearrange your bullet points based on what this job prioritizes. Do they want project management? Put your project work up top. Do technical skills matter more? Lead with those. You're not changing your experience, just reorganizing what gets seen first.
Your formatting matters more than you think. ATS checking software crashes on tables, text boxes, and creative layouts. Use boring headers—"Experience," "Education," the basics. Pick a standard font. Export as PDF or plain text.
Tailor each resume and cover letter to the job you're chasing. Takes longer, sure. But sending the same generic version everywhere means you're competing with people who actually customized theirs. The job posting already tells you what to highlight and how to talk about your background—just follow their lead.
This free resume optimizer does what others claim but can't deliver—real results without gutting who you are. Other tools either hack your experience down or cram it with stiff keywords. This one keeps 97%+ of your original resume and adds what matters. The scores prove it: consistent 84-100 ratings that get you past the gatekeepers.
Stop sending resumes into the void. Get instant feedback on what's holding you back and an optimized version that works with modern hiring systems. Takes less than a minute.
An ATS score tells you how well your resume matches a specific job posting, 0-100 scale. It checks whether you included the right keywords, formatted things correctly, and highlighted skills that automated screeners look for. Scores above 80 usually pass initial filters. Below 60? You're probably getting auto-rejected no matter how qualified you are.
It reads both the job requirements and your background to find the strongest overlaps. Catches missing keywords that count, shows you how to re-frame your experience for what they want, and makes sure your technical skills get the weight they deserve. By hitting what ATS systems actually scan for, your resume shows up in recruiter searches and clears automated filters.
No—it improves how you present what you already have instead of making stuff up. It finds transferable skills you have but didn't emphasize, suggests better action verbs, and reorganizes things to match what the job posting cares about. Your accomplishments stay honest while getting more relevant to the specific job you want.
The score shows how well your resume keywords match what the job posting requires, based on analysis of successful applications. No score guarantees an interview, but scores consistently above 90 strongly correlate with passing automated screening. The detailed report shows exactly which terms helped or hurt your score, so you know what the system weighted most.
Review the suggestions and add your personal touch. The tool gets you matching key requirements, but you should layer in specific metrics, project details, and accomplishments that set you apart. Think of it as getting past the robot so a human can see what makes you worth hiring.
Yes—this is where it really helps. It shows how your current skills apply to your target industry and suggests ways to talk about your experience in that field's terms. Moving from education to corporate training? It might change "designed curriculum" to "developed learning programs" to match the business language recruiters search for.
For technical positions, hard skills get bumped to 60% of your overall score instead of the usual 40%. That means your programming languages, frameworks, tools, and certifications take priority in the optimization. Match rates for technical keywords hit 86%+ since these roles need precise skill alignment.
