About this tool
People also call this an ATS resume scanner. It reads the posting for the skills, tools and qualifications it names, then checks which of them your resume gives evidence for.
The comparison is per posting, not general. A resume is not strong or weak on its own, it is a match or a mismatch for one job. Two openings with the same title routinely score differently against the same document, because the companies describe the work in different words. “Demand generation” and “paid advertising” mean the same thing to a person and different things to a keyword search.
It is built for people applying to roles where postings use specific vocabulary. For software engineers, accountants, product managers and several other roles, the keywords-by-role directory links a study of what their job postings ask for. If you are sending a cover letter with the same application, the cover letter checker runs the same comparison on that.
The dealbreaker scan
Whether the role is remote, hybrid or onsite, and any travel, security clearance, visa sponsorship or pay range the posting states, shown next to your score so you do not have to dig for them.
Items the posting marks as required, such as years of experience, a license, a clearance or a named technology, that your resume shows no evidence of. When two or more are missing, they are listed before your score as something to weigh before you apply.
How it works
The job description is split into skills, tools and qualifications, most important first. Each one is checked against your resume for direct evidence or clearly equivalent experience, and ambiguous cases count as missing, so the score understates rather than flatters. The percentage is matched divided by the total, minus five points for each missing item from the job's top five skills or top three tools, capped at 94 and floored at 8. The same inputs give the same score.
Read the missing list as a question, not a task list: a term is worth adding only where you have done the work and your resume describes it in different words. A high score is not an interview. It means the wording lines up, and a person still reads the resume.
Our match score is not an employer's ATS score.
It is our own measurement, calculated by the method above and published in full. It is not a Workday, Greenhouse, iCIMS or Lever score, we have no access to those systems, and no vendor discloses one. The full method, step by step · What an ATS actually does

Common questions
ChatGPT reads your resume and suggests improvements from general knowledge. ResumeFitting does one narrower thing: it takes a specific job description, extracts its skills, tools and qualifications, classifies each one as matched or missing against your resume, and returns the ratio as a score. The same extraction and the same rule run every time, at temperature 0, so the score does not drift between runs. You also get a skip signal when the role is a clear mismatch, and the posting's logistics (remote, visa, pay) pulled out for you. The whole method is published on the about page.
The analysis shows your ATS match score, the exact keywords missing from your resume against that job description, your bullet strength score, the weak phrases a reader has to work past, and a skip signal if the role is a clear mismatch. It also pulls job logistics automatically: remote vs. onsite, travel requirements, clearance needs, visa sponsorship and pay range, so you're not hunting through the posting yourself. No signup required.
Your resume and job description are used only to generate your analysis and are not stored, sold, or used to train any AI model. Each session is independent.

ResumeFitting is an independently built tool, running since March 2026, with no team of recruiters, no proprietary hiring dataset and no access to any employer's applicant tracking system. What it has instead is checkable: a published scoring method, and keyword figures from public postings with their limits stated. Who built this and how the score is calculated · ZoeVera on LinkedIn
