Free Resume–Job Description Match Checker
Paste your resume and the posting. We extract the posting’s key terms and show which ones your resume covers — and the complete list of what’s missing, not a top-5 teaser with the rest behind a paywall.
We’ll compare its requirements with your resume. Add only skills and experience you actually have.
Tailor without inventing qualifications
For every missing term, ask one question: have I actually done this? If yes, the fix is a bullet that proves it, in the posting’s language. If no, leave the gap — and let your real strengths carry the application. The step-by-step tailoring guide walks through a worked example, and in the studio you can duplicate & tailor a copy for each job while your original stays untouched.
Frequently asked questions
Is keyword overlap an employer's ATS score?
No. It is one signal — whether the posting's terminology appears in your resume with evidence behind it. Employers weight requirements, screening answers, and human review on top of any parsing.
Should I add every missing keyword?
Only accurate ones. A missing term you genuinely have is an easy win; a term you do not have will surface in the first interview question.
How is this different from the ATS checker?
The checker diagnoses your document itself (parsing, structure, evidence). This page is about one specific comparison: your resume versus one specific job description.
