Raleigh Resume

Step 1: scan the posting.

The scanner sets the legal and benefits boilerplate aside, then ranks the terms the posting leans on: hard skills, credentials, and the soft skills it names outright.

Paste the whole posting, from the title through the qualifications. Formatting does not matter.

Step 2: match your resume.

The match runs your resume against the strongest skill and credential terms from the scan, and reports honest counts: which terms are on the page, and which are not.

or drag one onto this box.

Your PDF is read right here in the tab, never uploaded. The text box will show exactly what an applicant tracking system gets from your PDF.

Or paste instead. Formatting does not matter; the words are what get matched.

What gets scanned, and why it stays private

Give the scanner any job posting and it reads the way a tailoring professional does: past the boilerplate, straight to the terms the employer repeats, requires, and leads with.

Add your resume and the report gets specific: which of the top terms your resume already carries, and which are missing. It counts rather than scores, because "9 of 12 terms" is a claim you can check and a percentage only pretends to be. Add a missing term only when it names work you have actually done; a resume that parrots the posting reads like one, to software and to people.

Your posting and your resume never leave this tab. The analysis runs in your browser, and a security rule enforced by your browser blocks this page from sending your text anywhere. Nothing is uploaded, nothing is stored, and closing the tab erases it all.

What no scanner can weigh is which gaps matter and how to close the real ones honestly. Those are judgment calls, and we make them for clients every day.

The rest of the free toolbox runs the same way, in your browser: the resume check grades the whole document, the bullet meter grades it one line at a time, and the post previewer shows what a LinkedIn post keeps above the fold.

Frequently asked questions

Is the job posting or my resume uploaded?

No. Both are analyzed by a small script running in your browser, and a security rule enforced by your browser blocks the page from sending your text anywhere. Nothing is uploaded, nothing is stored, and closing the tab erases it all.

Why is there no match score out of 100?

Because a keyword count cannot know that much. A result of 9 of 12 top terms is a claim you can check against the lists on the screen; a percentage dresses the same count in precision it does not have.

Should I add every missing keyword to my resume?

No. Add a term only when it names work you have actually done, and put it in the bullet where that work lives. A resume that parrots the posting reads like one, to software and to people.

How does the scanner decide which terms matter?

It sets legal and benefits boilerplate aside, then weights terms by where they sit: requirements and the opening lines count for more than a passing mention. Recognized skills, credentials, and named soft skills are grouped; repeated terms it cannot classify are shown separately so you can judge them yourself.
