Resume Review automates the alignment check in three simple steps:

Paste Job Description
From any source
Get Your Score
With actionable insights
Everything happens in your browser. No accounts, no servers, no privacy trade-offs.
Result: Clear, actionable feedback in seconds. Better resume positioning. Higher confidence going into applications.
Core Features
Smart Resume Parsing
Upload any resume and let Resume Review extract the details that matter: name, contact info, experience, education, skills, and bullets. Structured data. Ready to score.
Intelligent Keyword Matching
Job description keywords are automatically extracted, weighted by importance, and matched against your resume. Adjust weights manually. Add custom keywords. See exactly which terms you're hitting and which you're missing.
ATS Compatibility Check
Resume Review runs a comprehensive ATS readiness scan before scoring. Critical issues are flagged immediately. Non-critical recommendations help you optimize formatting and structure.
Bullet Point Coaching
Weak bullets drag down your application. Resume Review identifies low-impact bullet points, scores them against quality criteria (action verbs, quantifiable results, conciseness), and suggests improvements—with optional AI-assisted guidance.
Crystal-Clear Results
See your overall score (0–100), matched keywords, score contributions, and missing keywords in one dashboard. Understand exactly where you stand against the job description.
Your Data, Your Device
All processing happens locally in your browser. Resumes never touch our servers. No cloud APIs. No tracking. Your privacy is guaranteed.
How It Works
Upload Your Resume
Drag and drop or click to browse. PDF, DOCX, and TXT formats supported. Upload happens instantly.
Parse Your Resume
Resume Review automatically extracts your name, contact details, experience, skills, and bullet points. Runs an ATS check to flag any structural issues.
Paste the Job Description
Copy the entire job posting—indeed, LinkedIn, or company website. Paste it in.
Extract Keywords
Resume Review detects the job description source (Indeed, LinkedIn, or unstructured), pulls out relevant keywords, and assigns weights based on section importance.
Customize Your Keywords
Review the keyword list. Adjust weights (1–5). Remove irrelevant terms. Add custom keywords if needed.
Score Your Resume
Resume Review performs case-insensitive, whole-word keyword matching. Each keyword's contribution is capped at its weight. Final score is normalized to 0–100.
Review Results & Get Coaching
See matched and missing keywords. Dive into bullet point analysis. Get suggestions to strengthen weak bullets. Export or adjust and re-score.
Don't Let ATS Be a Mystery
Most resume screening today starts with Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS). These systems parse resumes and either move them forward or send them to the trash before a human ever sees them.
Resume Review identifies the ATS compatibility issues that kill your application:
- Missing contact email or phone number – ATS can't reach you, application dies
- Weak section headings – Parser can't find experience, education, or skills
- Excessive special characters – Formatting breaks during parsing
- Insufficient content – Resume looks incomplete or deliberately sparse
- No skills section – Keyword matching gets harder for the hiring team
- No candidate name – ATS gets confused about identity
How It Works
Upload your resume. Resume Review runs an immediate ATS check and flags critical issues that block application progress. Fix those first. Then adjust your keywords and bullet points with confidence.
Go Beyond Keyword Matching
A resume that hits all the keywords can still fail if the bullet points are weak, vague, or poorly structured.
Resume Review analyzes each experience bullet against professional standards:
- Strong action verbs? Does the bullet start with an impact word like "Led," "Drove," "Optimized," etc.?
- Quantifiable results? Are there numbers, percentages, or measurable outcomes?
- Passive filler? Does the bullet include weak phrases like "responsible for" or "involved with"?
- Concise? Is the bullet tight, or is it bloated with unnecessary words?
What You Get

- Specific improvement suggestions for each weak bullet
- AI-assisted rewrites (optional, runs locally via Ollama)
