Extract or paste resume text

What this adds beyond a basic PDF converter

Resume checker competitors emphasize upload, job-description matching, ATS score, missing keywords, and formatting guidance. The low-risk PDF Everything version focuses on the useful browser-local step: compare the exact resume text against one target role, then export a checklist for honest edits.

Use OCR PDF to Text first when a scanned resume produces little selectable text.
Use PDF to Word when you need an editable draft before tailoring bullets.
Use this checker after every role-specific resume edit, not as a generic one-time score.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this check a PDF resume for ATS keywords?
Yes. Upload a selectable-text PDF resume or paste resume text, then paste the target job description. The checker compares role-specific terms, sections, and basic parser-readiness signals.
Does the resume leave my browser?
No. PDF text extraction, keyword matching, scoring, and report export run in the browser for this workflow.
Does this support DOCX uploads?
Not yet. Paste text from a DOCX resume, export your resume as a selectable PDF, or use another tool to convert it before checking.
Is this the same as a real employer ATS?
No. It is a practical keyword and structure screen, not a guarantee of how Workday, Greenhouse, Taleo, Lever, or any employer configuration will rank a resume.
What should I do with the missing keywords?
Only add terms that truthfully describe your experience. The strongest edits put relevant terms inside achievement bullets with measurable outcomes, not only in a skills list.
