FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is an ATS?
An Applicant Tracking System (ATS) is software used by employers to automatically screen, sort, and rank resumes. 98% of Fortune 500 companies use ATS, meaning your resume is often judged by an algorithm before a human ever sees it.
How does ATS screening work?
ATS software parses your resume to extract information (name, contact, experience, skills), then scores it against job requirements. Resumes with poor formatting may fail to parse correctly, and resumes missing key keywords may rank poorly even if you're qualified.
What resume format is best for ATS?
A single-column Word document (DOCX) or text-based PDF is best. Avoid multi-column layouts, tables, text boxes, graphics, and creative formatting. Use standard section headers like "Work Experience", "Education", and "Skills".
What ATS score do I need?
Aim for 75+ for a solid chance of passing. 90+ means your resume is well-optimized. Scores below 60 often indicate formatting issues that can prevent ATS from reading your resume at all.
How does the job description matching work?
Paste any job description into the optional field. Our engine extracts technical skills, soft skills, education requirements, and job title keywords from the job description, then compares them against your resume. You get a match percentage and a list of missing keywords to add.
Is this tool really free?
Yes, completely free with no limits. Core features will always be free.
Is my resume data private?
Absolutely. All processing happens entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your resume text never leaves your device, is never uploaded to any server, and is never stored anywhere. You can verify this by checking your browser's Network tab. Zero resume data is transmitted.
