Match your resume to a job description
Paste the job posting and see how well your resume matches it: required skills, years of experience, education and the keywords you are missing.
Why tailoring matters
Recruiters and applicant tracking systems search for the words a job posting uses. A resume that says "customer success" will be missed by a search for "account management" even if the work is the same. Tailoring means using the employer's wording where it truthfully describes your experience.
What the job match shows
- Skills and tools from the posting that you cover, and the ones you do not.
- Which keywords appear only in your Skills list and are never shown in a bullet.
- Whether you meet the stated years of experience and education level.
- How closely your job titles match the role.
Add keywords honestly
Only add a skill you really have. Interviewers ask about everything on your resume, and claiming a tool you have never used costs more than the missing keyword. ResumePoint shows where a keyword can truthfully be worked in, and its AI never invents experience: anything it cannot know becomes a [placeholder] for you to fill in.
How to read your match score
A high score means your resume already uses most of the posting's language. A low score does not mean you are unqualified; it often means your experience is described in different words, or that the role asks for tools you have not used. Look at the missing list, decide which items you genuinely have experience with, and show them in a bullet that proves it instead of only naming them in Skills.
Common tailoring mistakes
- Copying whole sentences from the job description. Recruiters notice, and it reads as generic.
- Stuffing a long keyword list into Skills without evidence in your experience.
- Changing job titles or dates to match. Employers verify both.
- Tailoring only the summary and leaving the bullets unchanged.
Keep one resume per job
Create a copy of your resume for each application, paste the job description, and adjust the summary and top bullets. Your original stays untouched.
Frequently asked questions
How is the match score calculated?
It weighs how many of the posting's technical skills, soft skills, keywords, years of experience and education requirements your resume covers. It estimates keyword and requirement overlap, not hiring odds.
Does the job description leave my device?
The match itself runs locally. It is only sent to an AI service if you click an AI button, and you are asked first.
Can I use it for any industry?
Yes, but the skill dictionary is strongest for technology, business, marketing, design and operations roles. Anything else is still matched as plain keywords.
Ready to try it?
It takes under a minute and needs no account.
