ATS resume checker

Check your resume before you apply

See what CVFit can read from your resume and which job keywords it finds. Use the results to clarify your experience without stuffing in keywords.

How it works

  1. 01

    Inspect the extracted text

    Check that sections and experience were extracted correctly. For scans, use an OCR tool first and review the recognized text.

  2. 02

    Compare the job’s terms

    Use the complete job description to review recognized skills and keyword coverage in context.

  3. 03

    Add the missing context

    Describe relevant work you have actually done, run the check again and review your final document.

Put keyword gaps in context

Keyword coverage uses the target job’s text. It does not contribute to the total match score, which avoids counting the same skill twice. A missing term can also reflect an unsupported synonym or a parsing issue.

Every employer screens differently

CVFit does not connect to an employer’s ATS or reproduce its screening rules. Check the employer’s instructions and your final document before submitting.

Turn the results into a stronger draft

Work through a job description, check the evidence behind each claim and review the resume you plan to submit.

Common questions

Will keyword stuffing improve my application?

Repeating a skill does not count as additional experience. Use accurate examples that explain your role, actions and outcomes instead of adding an unsupported list.

Can this guarantee that my PDF will pass an ATS?

No. The checker shows the text CVFit extracts and the terms it recognizes. Another system may parse the same file differently.

Which file types can I upload?

CVFit extracts text from PDF, DOCX, TXT, Markdown and RTF. Check the results carefully for complex layouts. Scanned documents need OCR before upload.
