ATS Resume Checker
75% of resumes never reach a human. Our AI-powered ATS resume scanner tells you exactly what's missing — keywords, formatting, structure — so you actually land the interview.
What Is an ATS and Why Does It Matter?
An Applicant Tracking System (ATS) is software that companies use to filter resumes before a recruiter ever sees them. Over 98% of Fortune 500 companies use an ATS — and most mid-size employers do too.
The ATS scans your resume for specific keywords, job titles, and formatting. If your resume doesn't match the job description closely enough, it gets auto-rejected. That's why 75% of resumes are filtered out before a human reads them.
How Jumproo's ATS Scanner Works
Paste your resume and the job description. Jumproo's AI instantly compares them and gives you a match score, highlights missing keywords, and flags formatting issues that confuse ATS parsers.
- Keyword match score against the actual job description
- Missing hard skills and certifications flagged instantly
- Formatting warnings — tables, headers, columns that break ATS parsing
- Actionable suggestions you can apply in under 10 minutes
Tips to Beat the ATS Every Time
Getting past the ATS isn't about gaming the system — it's about clearly showing you're qualified. Here's what works:
- Mirror exact phrases from the job description ("project management" not "managed projects")
- Use a clean, single-column layout — no tables, text boxes, or graphics
- Stick to standard section headings: Experience, Education, Skills
- Save as .docx or .pdf depending on what the application asks for
- Include both the acronym and full term (e.g., "Search Engine Optimization (SEO)")
Stop Guessing, Start Getting Interviews
The average job posting gets 250 applications. You need every edge you can get. Jumproo tells you exactly what to fix before you hit submit — no more wondering why you never hear back. It's the resume hack that actually works.
