What the resume review covers

  • 01

    Top three fixes first

    The changes most likely to improve the resume come first, in order, each with its reason.

  • 02

    Section by section

    Summary, experience, skills and education each get specific notes, quoting the words they refer to.

  • 03

    Job match from the ad

    Paste the posting and see which of its key terms your resume already shows and which are missing.

  • 04

    Weak bullets rewritten

    Up to five vague bullets come back as achievement statements, with [number] where a figure would help.

  • 05

    Honest about limits

    No percentage score: text cannot show fonts, columns or file problems, so the review tells you what to check yourself.

How to check your resume with AI

  1. 01

    Paste the resume

    Select all in your Word, Google Docs or PDF file, copy it and paste the text.

  2. 02

    Add the job ad

    Paste the posting under it for a job match, or leave it out for a general review.

  3. 03

    Fix and check again

    Make the changes, then review the new version or rebuild it as a resume from your notes.

What an AI resume checker can and cannot see

A checker that reads text can judge content: whether bullets show results, whether the summary fits the job, whether the posting's key terms appear, whether dates and titles are consistent. It cannot see your file's layout. Columns, text boxes, page headers, icons and images can confuse applicant tracking systems, so check those in the file itself.

Many checkers show a percentage. A score produced by a language model is an estimate that changes from run to run, so this review gives concrete fixes instead of a number.

The most common resume problems

Most reviews come back with some of these:

  • Duties instead of results: 'responsible for' with no outcome
  • A generic summary that could describe anyone
  • Key terms from the job ad missing or buried
  • Inconsistent dates, tenses or job title formats
  • Skills listed with no evidence in the experience section

ATS resume checker or human-style review?

An ATS resume checker focuses on what software parses: headings, dates, keywords and file format. A human-style AI resume review focuses on what a recruiter reads first: the summary, the most recent job and visible results. This review covers both as far as text allows, and its job match lists the posting's terms so you can add the ones that are true for you.

Before you paste

Four habits make the review more useful:

  • Copy the plain text: select all in your file and paste it
  • Leave out details you do not want stored, such as a street address
  • Include the whole job ad, not only the title
  • Review again after you edit, to confirm the fixes landed

AI resume checker FAQ

Is the AI resume checker free?

The account is free, and the checklists on this page are free to use by hand. An automated review uses purchased credits: 200 credits per document plus 1 credit per pasted word, so a 500-word resume and job ad cost 700 credits. New accounts get no free credits.

Does it give an ATS score?

No. Each employer configures its applicant tracking system differently, and a score made up by a language model is not a measurement. The review lists the job ad's terms found and missing in your resume and points out the formatting risks visible in text.

Is an AI resume review different from a resume checker?

They are mostly two names for the same thing. Here the review is the written assessment with fixes, and the checking part is the job match and the consistency checks. You get both in one result.

Can it check a PDF or Word file?

Paste the text instead of uploading a file: select all in the PDF or Word file, copy and paste. That also shows you roughly what screening software reads. If the pasted text comes out jumbled, simplify the file's layout.

Will it rewrite my whole resume?

The review rewrites up to five of the weakest bullets. To rewrite everything, choose bullet rewrite or one of the resume formats in the same tool and paste the resume as your notes.
