Understanding how well your skills align with a job posting is essential, particularly on platforms like LinkedIn. Careerflow has made this process seamless by offering a browser extension that allows you to quickly check your skills compatibility with any job post. With this powerful tool at your fingertips, you can navigate your job search with greater confidence and clarity, ensuring you focus on opportunities that truly match your qualifications.
Getting Started:
Step 1: Install the Careerflow.ai Browser Extension

Click on the floating Careerflow.ai icon on the page. This will open the extension menu with various features.
Step 4: Select Your Resume
Choose your Base Resume or import a new resume from your files.
⚠️ Note: You cannot reuse a previously tailored resume for skill matching. The tool is designed to evaluate only base or newly imported resumes.
Step 5: View Your Skill Score
Once you've selected a resume, the extension will analyze it against the job post and show your Skill Score, indicating how well your skills align with the role.
Step 6: Tailor Your Resume
Click "Tailor Resume" to open the Resume Builder Page and make recommended improvements based on the job post.

A list of matched skills will appear. Select the ones you want to include in your resume. You’re in control, pick only what matters. You can click to toggle the color/state of each keyword.
Step 8: Let AI Optimize
Give the AI a moment to tailor your resume using your selected keywords.
Step 9: Review Skill Matching Improvements
Once optimization is done, you’ll see your updated Skill Match score and new keyword highlights.
Step 10: Edit Manually (If Needed)
Review the AI’s suggestions. You can accept, reject, or manually edit the highlighted content.
Step 11: Compare Versions
Use the "Compare" feature to view changes made between your original and optimized resume.
Step 12: Finalize Resume
Click "Apply and Continue" to accept the optimized version and move forward.
Step 13: Check Skill Match Score
Visit the Skill Match tab to view your improved score after applying the changes.
Tip: You can also perform skill matching in the Job Tracker within the main app, giving you the same insights without using the browser extension.
💡 The Careerflow.ai browser extension empowers job seekers to strategically optimize their resumes and apply only to roles that align with their skill set.
