Free resume vs job description check
Match your resume to any job description
Paste the job description and upload your resume. You get a match score, every requirement marked as found, weak, or missing, the exact line in your resume that proves each match, and what to fix before you apply.
- ✓ Required vs preferred skills pulled from the posting
- ✓ Evidence quoted from your own resume, never invented
- ✓ Free, no signup, PDF up to 10 MB
Paste at least 150 characters so we can find the requirements.
2. Upload your resume
Paste the job description first, then upload your PDF.
How the match works
- 1. We read the job description and list its requirements, marking each as required or preferred.
- 2. We look for each requirement in your resume and quote the line that proves it.
- 3. A match only counts if the quote is really in your resume. Required skills count double.
Frequently asked questions
What is a job description match score?
It shows how much of what a specific job asks for is visible in your resume. We pull out each requirement from the job description, mark it as required or preferred, and look for real evidence of it in your resume.
Why does my resume need to match each job description?
Recruiters and screening software search for the skills and experience a posting lists. If your resume describes the same work in different words, or leaves a required skill out, it is harder to find and quicker to reject.
Is this free?
Yes. Matching your resume to a job description is free. If you later want Resumaxx to rewrite your resume, that is an optional one-time payment shown before checkout.
Will you add skills I don't have?
No. Suggestions only tell you how to show a skill if you genuinely have it. The rewrite service uses experience that is already in your resume.
