What is an ATS score?
Most employers screen CVs with an applicant tracking system before a person reads them. Your score estimates how well yours gets through.
80+
Strong
Your CV is in great shape for an ATS. Tailor it to each job to stand out further.
60–79
Needs work
Your CV gets through some screens but not others. The action plan shows what to fix first.
Below 60
At risk
Your CV may be filtered out before anyone reads it. Start with the high-impact fixes.
Frequently asked questions
How does the CV checker use AI?
Your CV is reviewed by Google’s Gemini model, guided by the criteria recruiters and applicant tracking systems use: layout, section headings, keywords, measurable achievements and more. The overall score is a fixed weighting of five category scores, so the same CV gets a consistent result.
Is it free? How do credits work?
Yes. Every job seeker account gets 5 free credits, refilled 24 hours after your first check. A CV check costs 1 credit, and a check with a job match costs 2 credits. Checks that fail on our side, or files that aren’t a CV, give your credits back. Your balance is always shown at the top of the page.
What happens to my CV?
Your file is read once, scored, and deleted straight away. We keep only the report, so you can open it again later, and only you can see it.
Which file format is best?
A text-based PDF is best: it keeps your layout, so we can judge it the way an ATS would. DOCX works too, but its layout can’t be checked. For now, CVs must be in English.
What’s a good ATS score?
80 or above is strong. 60–79 means some screens will pass you and others won’t. Below 60 is at risk of being filtered out. Most CVs land between 50 and 65 before any work is done on them.
Can I check my CV against a specific job?
Yes. Paste the job description or a link to the ad, and you’ll get a match score, the requirements you meet and miss, the keywords to add, and a summary tailored to that job.
