Every employer uses different ATS rules. This score tells you how your resume holds up on structure and format. Your actual ATS score depends on the role you apply for and that is exactly what Resume Optimizer handles.
Resume Optimizer takes your resume and tailors it for any specific job description. It injects the right keywords, fixes formatting and gives you a download-ready PDF and DOCX.

An ATS Resume Checker is a tool that analyses your resume the same way a company's Applicant Tracking System (ATS) software does. Before a single recruiter reads your CV, it passes through ATS software that scans for keywords, formatting and structure. Our free tool replicates that process and gives you a score out of 100 so you know exactly where you stand.
Most job seekers spend hours perfecting the design and wording of their resume without realising the biggest obstacle is not the recruiter but the software that filters them out first. Our ATS Resume Checker helps you fix the right things.
Quick fact: A resume with an ATS score below 70 has less than a 10% chance of being seen by a human recruiter. Our checker tells you your score and exactly what to fix.
Our checker analyses five key areas that ATS systems evaluate when processing your resume. Here is what we look at:
ATS systems are programmed to look for specific keywords that match the job description. Our tool checks whether your resume contains the most commonly required keywords for your target roles including job titles, skills, qualifications and industry-specific terms.
Many resume designs that look great to humans cause ATS systems to misread or skip sections entirely. Our checker identifies formatting issues like tables, text boxes, headers and footers, unusual fonts and graphics that confuse ATS software.
ATS software looks for standard section names like Work Experience, Education and Skills. If your resume uses creative headers like My Journey or Core Competencies, some ATS systems will not categorise your content correctly.
We check whether your resume is in a format that ATS systems can parse and whether the length is appropriate for your experience level.
A surprisingly common issue is missing or incorrectly formatted contact information. We verify that your name, email and phone number are easy for both ATS and recruiters to find.
The job market has become increasingly competitive. In 2026, the average corporate job opening receives over 250 applications. Without ATS optimisation, even the most qualified candidates are filtered out before being seen.
Our free ATS Resume Checker gives you actionable feedback so you know exactly what to change to improve your score and your chances of getting shortlisted.
Pro tip: Always customise your resume for each job application. The keywords an ATS looks for come directly from the job description. A resume that scores 85 for one role might score 60 for another.
Our ATS Resume Checker works for job seekers in every major job market. Whether you are applying for roles in the US, UK, Europe, India, UAE, Qatar, Africa or Asia, our tool understands the resume and CV standards in your region.
US employers use ATS systems extensively. A strong ATS score is essential for applications to companies on platforms like LinkedIn, Indeed and Glassdoor. Key focus areas include job-specific keywords, one to two page length and clear chronological formatting.
UK and European employers expect CV formats rather than resumes. Our checker accounts for CV-specific standards including personal statements, education placement and skills sections that UK and EU ATS systems recognise.
The Gulf job market has grown rapidly with platforms like Bayt and GulfTalent. Our tool helps job seekers in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Riyadh, Qatar and across the Gulf Cooperation Council countries optimise their CVs for regional ATS requirements.
Indian job seekers applying through Naukri, LinkedIn and company portals face ATS filtering. Our checker is calibrated for Indian resume formats and the keywords most searched by Indian and multinational employers hiring in India.
As the job market across Africa becomes increasingly digital, ATS tools are being adopted by employers in Nigeria, Kenya, South Africa and beyond. Our checker helps African job seekers meet international resume standards.

Your ATS score (out of 100) tells you how well your resume performs in Applicant Tracking Systems. A score of 80 and above is strong. Between 70 and 79 needs work. Below 70 means your resume is likely being rejected before any recruiter sees it.
We support PDF and DOCX formats up to 5MB. These are the two most widely accepted resume formats by ATS systems. We recommend submitting your resume as a simple, clean DOCX or a text-based PDF rather than a scanned image.
No. Your resume is processed in real-time and is never stored on our servers. We take your privacy seriously. The only information we save is your email address so we can send you your report and notify you when Resume Optimizer launches.
The ATS Resume Checker is free and tells you what is wrong with your current resume and gives you a score. The Resume Optimizer (coming soon) automatically fixes those issues and tailors your resume for a specific job description, then gives you a download-ready PDF and DOCX.
We recommend checking your resume each time you apply for a new role, especially if it is in a different industry or level. Since ATS systems scan for job-specific keywords, a resume that scores well for one role may need adjustments for another.
Yes. Whether you call it a resume or a CV, our checker works the same way. We understand both resume standards (common in the US and Canada) and CV standards (common in the UK, Europe, India and across Africa and Asia).
Do not worry. Our detailed feedback report tells you exactly what to fix. Common issues include missing keywords, complex formatting, non-standard section headers and incorrect contact information. Most issues can be fixed in under an hour. For a faster solution, our Resume Optimizer (coming soon) can do it automatically.
