Job Description Matcher — compare your resume to a posting
Paste a job description and see matched skills, missing skills, covered responsibilities and useful ATS terms. Without keyword stuffing.
The fastest way to weaken a good resume is to rewrite it for a machine. The fastest way to strengthen one is to read the posting honestly and close the real gaps. This tool does the second thing.
What you get
- Matched — skills and terms from the posting that already appear in your resume
- Missing — terms from the posting you do not address at all
- Potentially relevant — terms close to ones you do have, worth a second look
- Covered responsibilities — the posting's own duty lines your experience actually speaks to
- ATS terms — the vocabulary the posting uses, which is the vocabulary its parser will look for
What we will not help you do
Keyword stuffing. Copying the posting's phrases into a hidden block or a paragraph of meaningless text gets you past nothing — recruiters spot it in seconds and modern systems filter it out. Add only skills you genuinely have; where you are close, say so honestly in your summary instead.
Frequently asked questions
Frequently asked questions
Is my job description sent anywhere?
No. Matching runs in this browser against the text of your resume. Neither text leaves your device.
A term is missing but I can do it. What now?
That is a genuine gap in your resume, not your skill set. Add it to your skills list or reword a bullet to show where you used it.
How many keywords should I aim for?
There is no target number. Aim for honest coverage of the responsibilities — the percentage is diagnostic, not a goal.
