Resume Checker — find the gaps before an employer does

Check your resume for missing contact details, inconsistent dates, empty sections, broken links and overly long summaries. Free, instant and browser-side.

A resume checker earns its keep by catching the small omissions that make a strong application look careless: a missing email, a date range that runs backwards, a link without https://, an empty section still switched on, a summary that runs past seven hundred characters.

What gets checked

  • Name, professional title, email and phone present and correctly formatted
  • Summary length inside a range recruiters actually read
  • Every date in a consistent, parseable format with start before end
  • No visible section left empty
  • Links written as full URLs
  • No duplicate bullet points
  • Bullet length inside a scannable range
  • Font size and margins readable on paper

Before you download

The export panel runs a preflight check. Critical issues — a missing name or email — are called out first; everything else is a suggestion. You can always download anyway, because you know your own situation better than a checklist does.

Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions

Do you store my resume to check it?

No. The checks are deterministic rules running in this browser. Nothing is sent anywhere.

Is the check a substitute for a human?

No. It catches mechanical problems. A colleague in your field will still catch the ones that matter more.
