ATS Resume Checker That Scores Against the Job
Check how well your resume matches a job posting before you apply. See missing keywords and fix them with Vetta CV.
Check fit before you apply
Most large employers route applications through an applicant tracking system (ATS). Plain structure, relevant keywords, and clear section headings help your resume get parsed correctly. Paste the job description you're applying to and Vetta CV scores your CV specifically against it, so you can see exactly which keywords are missing before you apply.
Don't have a specific job description yet? Use the free ATS score checker instead — no sign-in, no job description needed, just a general ATS-readiness check.
What we look for
- Keyword overlap with the posting (skills, tools, domain terms)
- Standard section labels recruiters and parsers expect
- Evidence in bullets that supports claimed skills
Pair the checker with our AI resume tailor and the guide on ATS myths that cost interviews.
FAQ
What does an ATS resume checker do?
It estimates how well your resume aligns with a job posting’s keywords and structure so you can fix gaps before applying.
Is an ATS score the same as getting hired?
No. A strong match score improves the odds of passing automated filters; hiring still depends on experience, interviews, and fit.
Is there a free version that doesn't need a job description?
Yes. Our free ATS score checker checks general ATS readiness — formatting, structure, and common parsing pitfalls — without a job description or sign-in. This tool goes further by matching your resume against a specific posting's keywords.
