Free ATS Resume Checker

Applicant Tracking System. It's the software employers use to receive, parse, and filter resumes — Workday, Greenhouse, Lever, iCIMS, Taleo are the major ones. Most resumes are screened by ATS before a human reads them.

We use the same parsing libraries the major ATS vendors are built on. The score isn't a guess — it's based on what the ATS actually extracted from your file. If our parser can't find your work history, theirs probably can't either.

Almost always one of: tables/columns breaking the work-history parse, header/footer text being ignored, fancy fonts that don't extract cleanly, work history not in reverse-chronological format, or missing keywords from the job description. The report calls out which one.

On the free tier you can run multiple ATS checks per day, every day. The cap is high enough for active job seekers tweaking and re-checking the same resume across iterations.

Yes. The parse engines we mirror are industry-agnostic. Healthcare, finance, marketing, education, trades — all parse the same way. The keyword analysis adapts to the JD you provide (or stays general-purpose if you don't).

ATS score = does the resume parse cleanly and look professionally formatted. Match score = does the resume's content match a specific job description. You can have a perfect ATS score and a bad match score (your resume is clean but doesn't fit this role) — and vice versa.
