Placement readiness for universities,
measured.
ResumeGrade gives training & placement cells a defensible, rubric-based score for every student resume, across 1,000+ students, graded in the time it takes to review one by hand.
A TPO reviews 3,000 resumes before drive season.
Most get a 90-second glance. Feedback is inconsistent across faculty reviewers. Weak resumes reach recruiters first. Strong students get missed. Placement rates suffer. The placement office carries the blame.
Three steps. One afternoon. One thousand students.
Upload the cohort
Bulk upload via CSV, Drive, or your existing placement portal. Works with Superset, Zoho Recruit, and your TPO software.
Grade against your rubric
Start from the ResumeGrade default (built on Harvard Career Services principles) or upload your own. Weight six axes per cohort or per JD.
Return with receipts
Each student gets a 0 to 100 score, score band badge, and 8 to 14 specific edits. No vague tips. Audit log for every mark.
Six dimensions. One score. No black box.
Every student score breaks down into the same six dimensions. When you defend a decision in front of management, or when a student asks why they read 51, the answer is on the page.
Built on the principles placement teams already trust.
The rubric is anchored in the same heuristics Harvard Career Services and top campus recruiters use to triage at scale. We publish the weighting, the dimension definitions, and the scoring model. When a principal asks “why did this score 58 and that 71,” there is a paper trail, not a vibe.
“Standardise → Align → Prove readiness. Every step is documented, every decision auditable. That is the difference between a tool you trust with NAAC and a tool you trust with a screenshot.”
