Compare resume text against a job description for keyword match percentage. See matched and missing terms, upload PDF for text extraction—browser-based prep tool, free, no login.
The tool extracts up to 40 frequent meaningful terms from the job description (stop words removed) and checks whether each appears in your resume text. Match percent equals matched keywords divided by total job keywords, rounded to a whole percent.
Yes. Click Upload PDF to extract selectable text in the browser and fill the resume field automatically. Scanned image PDFs without text layers fail extraction—use OCR or paste from Word instead.

Missing terms appeared often in the job description but not in your resume text. Up to 20 missing tags display. Add them only when honestly accurate—never stuff irrelevant buzzwords.
Green tags list keywords found in both job description and resume—up to 15 displayed. They confirm coverage for skills and tools you already mention.
No exact synonym expansion—ML and machine learning count separately. Mirror exact phrases from the posting when they describe real experience you have.
Yes for prep purposes: match percent is your free ATS-style score against one job description. It is not a vendor ATS ranking score from Workday or Taleo—treat it as a keyword coverage checklist before you apply.
