Step 2: Upload Your Resume
Upload the resume you want to analyze for this specific job. This should be a Base Resume or a doc/PDF you uploaded previously, as the system will use this to generate your skill match score.
Step 3: Review the Analysis
Once your resume is uploaded, take a moment to review the detailed analysis generated by the tool.
Step 4: Tailor Your Resume
After reviewing the analysis, click "Create Job Tailored Resume." This feature will provide tailored recommendations to enhance your resume, ensuring it effectively showcases your qualifications and maximizes your chances of catching the employer’s eye.
⚠️ Important: You can only create one job-tailored resume per job card. Once a tailored resume is generated, you won’t be able to link another base resume into it.
Step 5: Skill Score Enhancement
Click the "Skill Match" tab to see specific keywords you need to incorporate into your resume. This analysis will help you understand which skills are missing and how to enhance your application.
Step 6: Apply Keywords
In your resume, input all the keywords presented in the missing tab. This step ensures your resume is aligned with the job requirements and improves your chances of being noticed by employers.
Step 7: Review Your Skill Score
After adding all the suggested keywords, reassess your Skill Score. You should see improvements that reflect the adjustments made, enhancing your overall compatibility with the job posting.
💡By aligning your resume to each job card using skill matching, you increase your chances of standing out to recruiters and ATS systems. Just remember—each job card supports only one job-specific tailored resume, so choose your resume file carefully before starting the process.
