Free ATS Friendly Resume Checker
Upload your resume to our free ATS friendly resume checker, and find out exactly what's preventing you from landing interviews.
Unlike every other ATS resume checker that simply checks for ATS compliance – usually focusing on basic keyword harvesting and formatting – our AI is the best because it scores your resume based on how likely you are to get an interview. Crucially, this means that our scoring also includes feedback on how the human screener will perceive your resume.
The Sheets AI ATS Checker bases its score out of 100 points, and its "North Star" is Colin's Reddit-famous resume advice used by millions of professionals in the US and around the world. Register for a free account, and we'll tell you how to fix every formatting and content error we find on your resume.
Want an easy button for an ATS compliant resume? Download and use our battle-tested free ATS friendly resume template, or rewrite and reformat any existing resume in seconds with our AI resume builder.
Your resume is processed securely. Scores are only stored if you choose to share them.
How Our ATS Resume Checker Works
1. Upload Your Resume
Upload a PDF, Word doc, or paste your resume text directly.
2. AI Analysis: ATS + Human
Our AI analyzes your resume's completeness, quality, and best practices to get you past both ATS and human resume screeners.
3. Get Your ATS Score
Receive your score and specific suggestions for improvement, so you're more likely to reach a human screener and get the thumbs up from that human (who, unlike an ATS system, has thumbs).
