Read left to right, 13 of 21 lines mix text from both columns. The job title now starts with “Kubernetes”.
Underlined: pulled in from the sidebar. Crossed out: not usable by software.
The checker runs inside this browser tab. Your resume is never uploaded, so there is nothing to delete later.
An ATS pulls the text out of your file to fill in a candidate profile that recruiters search. We pull it out the same way, in the same order, and show you every line.
One number from three parts: readability, writing, and job match when you add a job description.

Whether your bullets show results, start with a verb and are spelled correctly. It counts for your whole score without a job description, and 60% with one.
• Cut median failover time from 94 seconds to 11 during regional outages.
Lists a duty• Ran the on-call rotation for 23 engineers across three time zones.
How much of a job description shows up in your resume: required and preferred skills, job title, qualifications and years of experience. It counts for 40% when you paste a job description.
Readability sets the ceiling. The sample resume scores 77 for readability, so 77 is the most it can score. Its writing and job match decide how much of that it reaches: 56.
Software is losing part of your resume, or your bullets list duties instead of results. Start with the top three fixes in your report.
Software reads it and the writing holds up. Paste a job description and tailor your skills and title to each job.
It reads cleanly and shows results. Check again after big edits, and against each new job description.
These six layout choices carry the most readability points. Each one is a check in your report.
Software reads left to right, so a sidebar gets mixed into the text beside it.
Software looks for headings like Experience, Education and Skills to know where each part starts.
Text in a header or footer is often skipped, so keep your email and phone in the body of the page.
Words inside images or text boxes may never reach the text software reads.
Spaced-out letters come through one by one, so S K I L L S is not read as Skills.
A date split across lines can end up attached to the wrong job.
A number from 0 to 100. It shows how well software can read your resume, how clearly your writing shows results, and how closely it matches a job description when you add one. Every check and its weight is listed on the methodology page.
