How well does your resume match keywords from job descriptions?

75% of resumes are filtered out by ATS before a human sees them. Keyword matching is the #1 factor.

How This Resume Quiz Works

This quiz evaluates your resume across five dimensions that directly determine whether your application gets seen by a human — or dies in an ATS filter. Over 75% of resumes are rejected by Applicant Tracking Systems before a recruiter ever sees them (Jobvite). The dimensions are based on what ATS software actually scans for, combined with what recruiters report looking at during their average 6-second initial review.

  • ATS Optimization — keyword matching, file format, and parsing compatibility.
  • Achievement Framing — quantified results vs. generic job duties.
  • Top-Third Impact — what the recruiter sees in the first 6-second scan.
  • Formatting — clean layout that works for both ATS and human readers.
  • Tailoring — how much you customize for each specific application.
