What it does

Resume Optimizer compares your existing resume against a target job description and produces a rewritten version tailored to pass both automated ATS screening and human review. It extracts the specific skills, tools, and phrases the job listing emphasizes, then rewrites your bullets to surface matching experience using natural keyword integration — not keyword stuffing.

Every bullet is restructured using the Accomplishment Formula: Action verb + what you did + measurable result. The skill also flags sections of your resume that are missing keywords critical to the role and suggests concrete additions based on your background. The final output includes an ATS match score estimate and a side-by-side gap report.

How to install

How to use

Paste your current resume and the job description, then ask for an optimized version:

prompt
# Optimize for a Senior Product Manager role
Here is my current resume:
[paste resume text]

Here is the job description:
[paste JD text]

Optimize my resume bullets for ATS and human review.
Show keyword gap report and rewritten bullets.

Example of a rewritten bullet:

before / after
BEFORE
Worked on product roadmap and coordinated with engineering.

AFTER
Defined and executed a 12-month product roadmap across
3 engineering squads, delivering 4 major features that
increased ARR by 18% and reduced churn by 9%.

Tip: For the most accurate keyword gap analysis, paste the full job description including the "About You" and "Requirements" sections — not just the responsibilities list. The skill weights required skills more heavily than preferred skills.

What gets analyzed

  • Keyword density — required and preferred skills matched against your resume text
  • Action verb strength — weak verbs replaced with active, measurable alternatives
  • Quantification gaps — bullets without numbers are flagged for strengthening
  • ATS compatibility — table layouts, graphics, and non-standard fonts are flagged
  • Section completeness — missing sections like Summary or Skills block highlighted
