How the Resume Keyword Matcher works
- Paste the job description and your CV as plain text.
- Read the missing terms and separate them into things you have done but named differently, and things you genuinely have not done.
- Rewrite the first group in the advert's vocabulary. Never claim the second group.
FAQ
Will this get me past an applicant tracking system?
It helps a CV use the same vocabulary as the advert, which is what keyword screening looks for. Systems vary widely and many organisations do not screen automatically at all, so treat it as tidying rather than a gate to be picked.
Should I add every missing keyword?
No. Add the ones describing things you genuinely did, using the advert's wording instead of your own. Adding terms for work you have not done fails at interview and is dishonest.
Does keyword stuffing work?
No. Blocks of terms with no context read badly to any human reviewer, and modern screening looks at context rather than raw frequency. The aim is matching vocabulary, not repetition.
