How the Resume ATS Checker works

Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) scan resumes before a human recruiter sees them. Formatting issues, missing keywords, weak structure, or unclear impact statements can cause qualified candidates to be filtered out automatically.

Upload or paste your resume in PDF, DOCX, or TXT format. HRForge analyzes formatting, keywords, structure, and content to produce a structured ATS compatibility report.

You receive a structured report with a fixed format every time: overall ATS score (0–100), six weighted category scores, eight standard section checks, keyword match analysis, and five prioritized action items. Add an optional job title and description for targeted keyword alignment.

Use the score breakdown charts, category insights, and action plan to improve your resume before applying. Results are guidance only—always tailor your resume for each role and have a career advisor review critical applications.
