Free ATS Resume Checker — Score Your Resume Against Any Job Description

98% of Fortune 500 companies use Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) to filter resumes before a human sees them. If your resume isn't optimized, you're invisible.

Jumproo includes a free ATS resume scanner that scores your resume against any job description across 5 dimensions. No signup required.


How the ATS Scanner Works

Paste your resume + the job description → get an instant score breakdown.

Jumproo ATS Score — 5-dimension breakdown showing Hard Skills, Soft Skills, Results, Keywords, and Formatting scores

The 5-Dimension Scoring System

Unlike basic keyword-matching tools, Jumproo analyzes your resume across 5 independent dimensions:

Dimension What It Measures Example Feedback
Hard Skills Technical tools, languages, certifications from the JD "Missing: Python, Kubernetes, GraphQL"
Soft Skills Leadership, communication, collaboration keywords "Strong: demonstrates mentoring experience"
Measurable Results Numbers, percentages, dollar amounts in bullets "3 of 8 bullets lack quantifiable metrics"
Keyword Optimization Exact phrase matching against job description "JD mentions 'agile' 4 times — not in resume"
Formatting ATS-compatible structure, sections, date formats "Score: 72 — standard section headings detected"

Each dimension gets its own score, and the composite gives you an overall match percentage.

Strengths & Keyword Analysis

Below the score, you get:

  • Strengths — What your resume does well (quantifiable metrics, relevant experience, strong action verbs)
  • Missing Keywords — Exact terms from the JD that aren't in your resume
  • Matched Keywords — Terms you've already covered

Three Ways to Scan

Jumproo offers multiple scanning modes from the dashboard:

1. Quick Resume Scan

Upload your CV and see how you score against the market. No job description needed — it checks formatting, structure, and general best practices.

2. Match Against a Job

Upload your CV + paste a job description for a precise match score. This is the most powerful mode — it tells you exactly which keywords to add.

3. Bulk CV Generator

Add up to 5 job descriptions and get a tailored CV for each one — all generated in one go. This is a Pro feature.

Common ATS Mistakes the Scanner Catches

1. Missing Keywords

The #1 reason resumes get filtered out. The scanner highlights exact phrases from the JD that aren't in your resume.

2. No Quantified Achievements

Recruiters want numbers. The scanner flags bullets that lack metrics and suggests the XYZ formula:

"Accomplished [X] as measured by [Y] by doing [Z]"

3. Formatting Issues

Tables, multi-column layouts, graphics, headers/footers — the scanner checks for all of these.

4. Generic Bullets

Bullets like "Collaborated with cross-functional teams" score low. The scanner recommends specific, impact-oriented language.
