Private resume review
Review a PDF or DOCX for readable structure, role-relevant wording, and source evidence. Add a target job description when you want a more specific comparison—without an invented employer score or a promise of application success.
How it works
PDF or DOCX files are validated by the secure service.
Inspect four evidence states, priorities, and limitations.
Pack actions require verified access and source provenance.
Traceable diagnostics
An ATS resume checker should surface practical risks without pretending to reproduce every employer system. This review looks at readable structure, role-relevant terminology, and evidence that supports a job requirement.
Each finding separates supported evidence from missing wording, missing evidence, and ambiguous claims—so a wording gap is never confused with permission to invent experience.
Result preview
Source evidence describes leading a six-week launch with a measurable delivery outcome.
The source shows stakeholder coordination but does not use the role’s “cross-functional” terminology.
Confirm the scope and result before adopting a stronger claim.
Check whether headings, sections, and selectable text follow a clear reading order for automated and human review.
Compare target-role language with evidence already present in the resume, without stuffing or inventing keywords.
Separate defensible accomplishments from vague claims by looking for action, context, and a truthful outcome.
Practical preparation
Four checks make the document easier to inspect before you tailor it to a specific opening.
Label core sections Experience, Education, and Skills.
Do not rely on icons, graphics, or image-only text for essential qualifications.
Make responsibilities and outcomes easy to follow from top to bottom.
Use role terminology only where it accurately describes your background.
Two review modes
Choose the level of comparison that matches where you are in the application process.
Focus on document readability, structure, and evidence quality before choosing a specific opening.
Compare supported evidence and wording against a particular role without claiming knowledge of an employer’s private configuration.
Privacy and limits
There is no universal ATS score shared by every employer. Vendors parse documents differently, recruiters configure workflows differently, and final decisions involve more than software.
Your uploaded materials remain part of a private workflow and must be information you are authorized to use. Read the Privacy Policy for retention details and the AI Policy for model-processing boundaries.

Questions
One anonymous basic scan is available for free. It reviews the supported file and presents bounded diagnostics. Additional Resume Direction Pack actions have separate one-time access and finite usage limits.
Yes. The upload accepts PDF or DOCX files up to 10 MB. Use a file with selectable, readable text; image-only or unusually formatted documents may provide less useful evidence.
A job description is optional. Without one, the review can inspect general readability and structure. With one, it can compare source evidence and wording against the specific role requirements.
No. Employers use different systems, settings, and hiring processes. This tool does not provide an official vendor score or guarantee an interview, application success, or a particular screening outcome.
Review each finding against your source facts. Keep supported wording, clarify ambiguous language, add missing evidence only when it is true, and choose a readable template before exporting an application copy.
The scan is designed as a private workflow. Do not upload information you are not authorized to share. Current retention and processing boundaries are described in the Privacy Policy and AI Policy.
