What is ATS resume matching?

ATS (Applicant Tracking System) software screens resumes before recruiters see them. Resume Buddy AI compares your resume to the JD's required skills and experience, returning a 0–100 score and a gap list.

Is Resume Buddy AI free?

During early access you get 1 free full analysis per day; share with friends for 1 bonus run the same day. Includes keyword gaps, AI-optimized resume, PDF/Word export, and history in My account.

Which resume formats are supported?

PDF and DOCX. Use text-based files (not scanned images) for best parsing accuracy.

How long does analysis take?

AI analysis usually takes 30–90 seconds. Keep the tab open, then preview and download your optimized resume.

Does Resume Buddy AI generate interview questions?

Yes. After your resume–JD analysis completes, you get tailored interview questions based on the role, your experience gaps, and the job requirements—useful for behavioral and technical prep.

How is a resume analyzer different from a simple spell check?

A resume analyzer compares your resume against a specific job description: ATS match score, missing required keywords, and an optimized draft. Spell check only fixes grammar—it does not measure fit to the JD.

Resume Feedback: Get Actionable ATS Feedback Before Recruiters See Your File

Where to get useful resume feedback, how ATS systems judge fit, and how to turn gap lists into stronger bullets.

Friends give vibe-based resume feedback; ATS gives rule-based feedback. Both matter, but only one tells you that the posting required "SQL" and "experiment design" and your resume never mentioned them.

Resume Buddy AI is built for ATS-style feedback: required vs bonus keyword gaps, match score, competitiveness grade, and a rewritten preview you can export.

Turn feedback into edits

Prioritize missing required keywords first—one absent hard requirement can tank your score. Add terms inside achievement bullets with metrics, not only in a skills footer.

Ignore advice to keyword-stuff the JD verbatim. Recruiters read the same words twice and spot templates instantly.

Combine human and automated review

Run the analyzer, fix the top gaps, then ask a peer in your target function whether the story reads credible. Re-analyze after substantive changes.

Saved history in My account lets you compare feedback across multiple companies you are targeting.
