How the review works
Six criteria, applied the same way every time. Each result shows what was found and why. It is a guidance review, not an employer's ATS score.
| Criterion | What we check | Met | Partly met |
|---|---|---|---|
| Role relevance | Key terms for your role, or from the job description, found in your resume. | 60% or more | 35% or more |
| Evidence | Bullets that show an action, scope or result, and few that start with a duty phrase. | Half or more, at most one duty phrase | A quarter or more |
| Structure | Clear Experience, Education and Skills headings. | All three | Two |
| Keyword context | Matched terms used inside sentences, not only listed, and none repeated more than six times. | Half or more | A quarter or more |
| Consistency | One date style and one bullet style. | Both | One |
| Country conventions | No personal details the market usually leaves off, and 250–1,100 words. | Both | One |
