How Our ATS Diagnostic Engine Scores Your Resume.
Ground-truth evaluation built on reverse-engineered parsing rules from Workday, Taleo, Greenhouse, iCIMS, and Lever.
Keyword & Skill Density
ATS parsers map your skills and job titles against targeted taxonomy dictionaries. We verify essential hard skills, frameworks, cloud platforms, and domain expertise.
Google X-Y-Z Metric Density
Top tier resumes begin with power action verbs and contain measurable impact: "Accomplished [X] as measured by [Y], by doing [Z]". We detect numbers, percentages, and scale indicators.
Duplicate & Quality Audit
Avoid sounding repetitive. Our algorithm highlights overused action verbs, repeated sentences, buzzwords, and fuzzy phrase duplicates that lower recruiter impressions.
4 Mistakes That Cause Immediate ATS Rejection.
Ensure your resume avoids these technical traps that crash ATS parsers:
Most legacy parsers cannot navigate floating text boxes or multi-row tables, scrambling the text into unreadable gibberish.
Skill rating bars (e.g. 4/5 stars) or graphics cannot be read by OCR scanners and register as 0 skills to recruiters.
Many applicant tracking systems omit document headers and footers, losing your email, phone number, and location.
Headings like "Where I've Been" or "My Journey" confuse parsers. Stick to standard headings like "Experience" and "Education".
Frequently Asked Questions.
Everything you need to know about beating modern Applicant Tracking Systems
How accurate is this ATS resume checker?
Our scoring engine is calibrated directly against the parsing heuristics used by tier-1 ATS systems including Workday, Taleo, Greenhouse, and Lever. It evaluates syntax, keyword density, section headers, metrics, and plain-text output with high fidelity.
Should I use PDF or Word (.docx) format?
Both formats are widely supported in 2026. However, standard text-based PDF generated with clean vector layers (like those created in our builder) preserves your precise visual layout while allowing 100% accurate text extraction.
Will this store or share my private resume data?
No. All parsing and diagnostics run securely. Your resume data is stored only in your private authenticated account or local browser session and is never sold, shared, or exposed to third parties.
How can I improve my ATS score to 90%+?
Follow the suggestions highlighted in your audit report: ensure all 4 contact methods are present, inject at least 3-5 quantified metrics in your experience bullets, eliminate repeated phrases, and use our AI Job-Specific Tailor to mirror the employer's required skills.
