What this ATS resume checker analyzes
Every resume is scored across 37 signals grouped into 8 categories. The goal is to catch structure, clarity, formatting, and impact issues before you apply.
ATS Readability
Checks whether your resume is easy to scan, uses clear section order, and avoids formatting choices that commonly create parsing problems.
Section Completeness
Reviews contact details, summary, work experience depth, education details, and whether your skills section is specific enough.
Quantified Impact
Looks for measurable outcomes, scope signals, before-and-after framing, and bullets that show results instead of responsibilities only.
Action Language
Flags weak verbs, passive phrasing, and repeated language so your bullets read as active and specific.
Role Clarity
Checks job-title clarity, responsibility scope, seniority signals, company context, and consistent dates.
Formatting & Brevity
Reviews resume length, bullet length, visual density, consistency, and whether key details are scannable.
Repetition & Variety
Finds copy-pasted bullets, repeated skills, and roles that do not clearly differ from one another.
Spelling & Grammar
Checks spelling, grammar, punctuation, and tense consistency across current and previous roles.
