Scoring Methodology
Clear information about how this site works and what users can expect.
Last updated: January 7, 2026
Our score is a transparent diagnostic checklist. It is not based on access to an employer’s ATS, and it does not predict interviews or hiring.
Resume Checker categories
| Category | What is checked | Important limitation |
|---|---|---|
| Contact patterns | Email and phone-like text | Does not verify accuracy |
| Core sections | Conventional heading patterns | Custom headings may be missed |
| Length | Approximate word range | Relevance matters more than a fixed count |
| Evidence | Numeric signals and action verbs | Cannot judge truth or context |
| Role alignment | Overlap with prominent job terms | Does not understand all synonyms or importance |
Why results can differ
Small wording changes, copied formatting, role descriptions and custom section names can change the output. Use results to find areas to inspect, then apply professional judgment.
What we intentionally do not claim
- No universal ATS compatibility guarantee.
