AI rates your resume 0–100 across ATS compatibility, keywords, impact, formatting, and completeness.
See the exact issues and missing keywords, then reforge your resume with guided AI fixes.
Most resume feedback is vague: “make it pop,” “tighten it up.” A useful review is specific. ReForgedCV’s checker evaluates every bullet for verb strength and quantified results, flags duty-list phrasing that reads like a job description instead of an achievement, and checks that your most relevant experience is positioned where a skimming reader will actually see it.
It also inspects the mechanics recruiters notice instantly: inconsistent dates, missing contact details, walls of text, and sections in an order that hides your strongest signal. Each finding comes with a plain-English explanation of why it matters and how to fix it.
They answer different questions. An ATS check (we run one as part of this review) asks: will parsing software read this file correctly and rank it for the right keywords? A resume review asks the human question: once your resume reaches a recruiter, does it persuade them in six seconds?
This page gives you both signals in one pass — a compatibility check for the software gate plus a persuasion check for the human gate — because passing one and failing the other still means no interview.
Five dimensions: ATS compatibility, keyword coverage for your target roles, impact (quantified achievements and strong verbs), formatting and readability, and completeness. You get a 0–100 score, your top strengths, and the specific issues found.
The checker is trained on the same criteria recruiters and Applicant Tracking Systems use: parseable structure, keyword relevance, and measurable achievements. It is deliberately strict — it flags issues a friendly human reviewer would let slide, which is exactly what you want before applying.
Yes. Every issue is actionable on its own, and if you create a free account the editor walks you through fixing each one with AI-suggested rewrites you can accept, edit, or reject — then re-score to confirm the improvement.
Yes. The scoring adapts to what your resume contains — a new graduate’s projects and coursework are evaluated on the same impact principles as a director’s P&L achievements. Keyword analysis is driven by your actual roles, not a fixed template.
