What ResumeVera checks
Four dimensions that determine whether your resume reaches a recruiter.
ATS Compatibility
Does your resume parse correctly through systems like Workday, Greenhouse, and Taleo? Tables, columns, and text boxes often cause silent failures.
Keyword Density
Are the right industry keywords and job-title phrases present? ATS ranks resumes against the job description — missing keywords = lower score.
Content & Impact
Strong action verbs, quantified results, and clear achievements that signal a strong candidate to both ATS and human reviewers.
Formatting & Structure
Clean layout, correct section order, ATS-safe fonts, and no hidden traps like contact info in headers or footers.
Why your resume might be failing ATS
Most rejections are caused by fixable formatting errors — not missing qualifications.
Multi-column layouts
ATS reads columns left-to-right across rows, merging your job title with a skill. Your work history gets scrambled and categorized incorrectly.
Missing keywords
ATS scores resumes against job descriptions. If your resume doesn't use the exact phrases from the posting, your score drops below the threshold.
Creative section headings
"My Journey" instead of "Experience" means ATS cannot categorize your background. Use standard headings it recognizes.
Contact info in headers
Most ATS systems skip headers and footers entirely. Name and email placed there make you unreachable even if the rest of your resume is perfect.
Image-based PDFs
Resumes exported from Canva or Figma are images, not text. ATS reads zero content. Always use .docx or a text-based PDF.
Inconsistent date formats
Mixing "Jan 2022" with "2022-01" confuses ATS date parsing and can make your employment timeline appear broken.
What your ATS score means
Understand how recruiters use ATS scores to filter candidates.
85–100
Fully ATS-optimized. Strong keyword match, clean formatting, complete sections. Will pass automated screening at most companies.
75–84
ATS-friendly with minor gaps. A few keyword additions or small formatting fixes will push it into the excellent range.
60–74
May pass some ATS but filtered by stricter systems. Keyword gaps and formatting issues are costing you interviews.
0–59
Significant formatting or keyword problems. Most ATS will reject before any human sees it. Immediate action needed.
Resume checker for every role and industry
Our ATS checker is calibrated for the most common job types in India and globally.
Software Engineer
Use exact technology names from the JD (React, not just "frontend"). GitHub and open-source contributions are strong ATS signals.
Data Analyst / Data Scientist
List tools explicitly: Python, SQL, Tableau, Power BI. Quantify impact — "reduced reporting time by 40%" scores higher than "improved reports".
MBA / Management
Include: P&L, stakeholder management, cross-functional, go-to-market. Scope ("team of 12", "$2M budget") ranks higher than generic leadership language.
Fresher / Recent Graduate
ATS parses internships, projects, and coursework identically to work experience. Use a Skills section with every technology from your college projects.
Finance & Accounting
Name certifications precisely: CA, CFA, CPA, ACCA. Include software: SAP, Tally, QuickBooks. ATS ranks exact certification name matches very highly.
Marketing & Growth
Include channel keywords: SEO, SEM, CRO, Google Analytics, Meta Ads. Use metrics: CTR, ROAS, CAC, LTV. Generic "marketing experience" will not rank.

Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about ATS and our free resume checker.
Is the resume checker free?
Yes, the resume checker is 100% free. No account or credit card required. Upload your resume and get an instant score across ATS compatibility, keyword density, content quality, and formatting.
What does the resume checker analyze?
Our resume checker analyzes four key areas: (1) ATS Compatibility — whether your resume parses correctly through applicant tracking systems; (2) Keyword Density — whether relevant industry keywords and job-title phrases are present; (3) Content & Impact — strong action verbs, quantified results, and clear achievements; (4) Formatting & Structure — clean layout, correct section order, and ATS-safe fonts.
Why do 98% of large companies use ATS software?
Large companies use ATS to manage the high volume of applications — some Fortune 500 firms receive tens of thousands of applications per month. ATS software automatically filters, scores, and ranks resumes so recruiters can focus only on candidates who meet the minimum requirements. This means a poorly formatted or keyword-sparse resume can be rejected before any human reviews it.
What file formats does the resume checker support?
The resume checker supports PDF, DOC, and DOCX formats up to 5MB. For best ATS compatibility, we recommend submitting a .docx or text-based PDF.
How do I improve my ATS resume score?
To improve your ATS score: (1) Use standard section headings like Experience, Education, and Skills; (2) Include keywords from the target job description naturally throughout your resume; (3) Remove tables, text boxes, columns, images, and graphics; (4) Use a standard font like Arial or Calibri at 10–12pt; (5) Put contact information in the main body, not in headers or footers; (6) Save as .docx or a text-based PDF.
How long does the resume analysis take?
The analysis completes in seconds. Upload your resume in PDF or DOCX format and our AI will return your score and detailed feedback almost instantly.
What ATS score do I need to get an interview?
A score of 75+ means your resume is ATS-friendly and should pass automated screening. Scores of 85+ are excellent. Below 60 indicates significant formatting or keyword issues. Most enterprise ATS systems (Workday, Greenhouse, Taleo) use a threshold around 70–75% to decide which candidates advance.
Is my resume data secure?
Yes. Your resume is used only for your analysis and is never shared, sold, or used to train AI models. We do not store your resume content after the analysis is complete.
Can I check my resume without signing up?
Yes. You can upload your resume and see your top-level ATS score without creating an account. Sign up free to unlock the full report including keyword gap analysis, section-by-section breakdown, and specific fix recommendations.
How is ResumeVera different from other free resume checkers?
Most free resume checkers require you to sign up before showing any results, or only give a generic score without specific fixes. ResumeVera shows your ATS compatibility score instantly — no account needed — and gives you specific, actionable recommendations for each issue found. We also include 20+ ATS-safe resume templates so you can fix and rebuild in the same tool.
