Upload your resume PDF to get a free 0–100 score, four category scores, and prioritized recommendations for improving keyword relevance, formatting, achievement impact, and readability.
Keyword relevance: checks whether your wording and listed skills reflect the target industry you select, or the one detected from your resume. It is a general industry check, not a comparison against a specific job description.
Format and structure: looks at section headings, section order, tables, columns and other layout choices that can make a document harder to read or harder for software to extract text from.
Content and achievement impact: looks for strong action verbs, clearly described responsibilities, your specific contributions, and genuine measurable results rather than a list of duties.
Readability: considers whether sentences are clear, bullet points are concise, language is consistent, and descriptions are easy to follow at a glance.
Upload a resume and run the analysis to see your overall 0-100 score, a breakdown by category, and a prioritized list of suggestions.
These are representative examples of the kind of feedback the checker gives, not results from a real resume. Your report lists suggestions specific to your resume, each tagged High, Medium or Low priority so you know what to fix first.
Achievement impact
Some experience bullets describe responsibilities without clearly communicating the results.
Next step: Where you have a real outcome, add what changed because of your work and, if you know it, by how much.
Formatting
A complex multi-column layout may make the document harder to parse.
Next step: Consider a single-column layout with standard section headings. To see how your PDF text extracts, try the free parse rate checker.
Readability
Long or vague bullet points may be easier to understand when rewritten more directly.
Next step: Lead with the action, keep one idea per bullet, and cut filler words.
Keyword relevance
Review whether your resume accurately reflects the skills associated with your target industry.
Next step: Name the skills you genuinely have using the terms your industry commonly uses.
How the score works
The score is an estimate from an AI-assisted review of your resume text. Here is how it is built, and how far to trust it.
Your resume text is scored on keyword optimization, format and structure, content and impact, and readability. Those category scores are combined into the overall 0-100 number you see.
Output: overall score + 4 category scores + prioritized suggestions
An OpenAI model prompted with ATS best practices produces the score. If it is unavailable, a heuristic estimate takes over and is clearly labelled:
Suggestions are tagged High, Medium or Low so you know what to fix first. No tool, this one included, can promise how a specific employer's ATS or recruiter will treat your resume.
Tip: start bullets with action verbs and quantify results where you can.
Clear answers on how the score works, which files we accept, and what happens to your data.
A resume score is an estimate of your resume's overall quality on a 0-100 scale. This tool reviews four areas: keyword relevance for your target industry, format and structure, content and achievement impact, and readability. It scores each one, combines them into a single overall score, and lists prioritized suggestions.
Start with the suggestions tagged High priority. Common improvements include describing real results instead of only listing duties, starting bullets with strong action verbs, using clear section headings in a simple layout, tightening long or vague bullets, and making sure the skills you list reflect what you can genuinely do in your target industry. Then upload the revised PDF to see how the score changes.

Currently we support text-based PDF files only (not scanned images), with a maximum file size of 5 MB. The tool works best with English-language resumes.
The score is an estimate generated by an OpenAI model prompted to evaluate resumes across four dimensions. If AI is unavailable, a heuristic fallback estimates the score from keyword density, section structure, and formatting patterns, and the result is marked as estimated. Scores can differ between tools, and no checker can see inside an employer's ATS or predict a recruiter's decision, so treat the score as a guide to what to improve rather than a guarantee.
No. A resume score rates the general quality of your resume on its own, without a job description. An ATS match score compares your resume against one specific job posting to show which of its keywords and requirements your resume covers and which are missing. To see how your resume lines up with a particular role, use the free ATS Match Score Checker.
Your resume text is sent to our server and to OpenAI to generate the score, and we do not save it. Data sent through OpenAI's API is not used for model training, and OpenAI may temporarily retain it for abuse monitoring. See our Privacy Policy for details.
