Free ATS Resume Checker

Upload your resume and paste the job description to see your keyword match, missing requirements, and ATS compatibility issues before you apply.

This free tool uses lightweight AI models, so analysis may occasionally be incomplete or unavailable. Results are based on the resume and job description you provide; individual applicant tracking systems may evaluate applications differently.

What does an ATS resume checker check?

An ATS resume checker compares your resume to a specific job description and flags gaps in skills, keywords, structure, and formatting that may affect how applicant tracking systems parse and rank your application.

TailoredCV checks job match, keyword coverage, section structure, contact details, bullet quality, and common formatting issues. We do not claim to reproduce the proprietary scoring algorithm of every applicant tracking system.

How to check your resume against a job description

  1. Paste or upload your resume.
  2. Paste the full job description for the role you are targeting.
  3. Review your match score, missing requirements, and recommended fixes.

What is a good resume-to-job-description match?

Higher relevant coverage generally means your resume reflects more of the employer's stated requirements, but no universal ATS match score guarantees an interview. Use the score to prioritize which skills and experiences to emphasize.

How to improve your resume match

Start by understanding which terms the employer cares about, then reflect genuine experience using the same language. Strengthen weak bullets, fix parsing issues, and tailor your summary to the role.
