ATS resume checking, explained
- What is an ATS and why does it reject resumes?
- An Applicant Tracking System is software employers use to read and file applications before a person sees them. It parses your resume into fields — name, contact details, employers, dates, skills — and applications it cannot parse, or that miss the terms a recruiter searches for, are filtered out or ranked low. Most rejections at this stage are formatting and keyword problems, not qualification problems.
- Is this ATS resume checker really free?
- Yes, and it needs no account. Paste your resume, get a score with specific fixes. There is no email wall, no trial, and no card. Your resume is analysed in your own browser and never uploaded.
- Does my resume get uploaded or stored anywhere?
- No. The entire check runs as JavaScript in your browser. The text you paste is never sent to a server, never written to a database, and disappears when you close the tab.
- How is my ATS score calculated?
- The checker measures concrete things: whether contact details are findable, whether standard section headings are present, whether roles carry dates, whether bullets open with action verbs and contain figures, resume length, characters that break parsers, and — if you paste a job description — how much of its significant vocabulary appears in your resume. Every result shows the measurement behind it, so you can check the verdict yourself.
- What can the free checker not see?
- Pasted text loses the layout, so this check cannot judge column structure, fonts, whether your PDF's text is selectable, or whether headers, tables and images will survive parsing. The resume builder runs 35 measured rules against the actual document, including all of those.
- What is a good ATS score?
- Above 75 is strong and 90+ is excellent. Below 60 means something structural is likely costing you interviews — most often missing contact details, no recognisable section headings, or work history with no dates. Fix the critical items first; they are worth more than every stylistic change combined.
