Common questions

Is this JD match checker really free?

Yes. Paste any job description and upload your resume. No account, no sign-in, no payment. You get a keyword coverage score, matched and missing terms, and tailoring tips instantly.

What does the JD match score mean?

The score reflects keyword coverage: how many required and preferred terms from the JD appear in your resume text. It does not evaluate context, experience depth, or employer-specific ranking logic. Use it as a gap map, not a final verdict.

How do I improve my JD match score?

Add missing required keywords to your Skills section or weave them into relevant experience and project bullets. Only where accurate. Keyword stuffing without evidence hurts you in interviews.

Can I check multiple job descriptions against the same resume?

Yes. Upload your resume once per check. There is no login, so each visit is independent. For bulk matching across many postings, upgrade to ResumeGrade Pro in the app.
