Job descriptions contain hidden patterns. ATS systems match your resume against specific keywords—if you miss them, you're filtered out before HR sees your application.

What This Tool Checks

  • Extracts must-have technical skills from job descriptions
  • Identifies soft skills and certifications mentioned
  • Highlights action verbs used in the JD
  • Categorizes keywords by importance (required vs nice-to-have)
  • Shows keyword frequency to understand priorities
  • Provides copy-ready keyword lists for your resume

Who Should Use This Tool

  • Job seekers tailoring resumes for specific roles
  • Freshers who don't know which skills to highlight
  • Anyone applying to 5+ jobs and need to customize quickly
  • Career changers identifying skill gaps
  • Students researching what skills to learn

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • ✕Stuffing all keywords without context—ATS and humans both notice
  • ✕Ignoring soft skills (communication, teamwork) that many JDs require
  • ✕Not matching the exact phrasing (e.g., 'React.js' vs 'ReactJS' vs 'React')
  • ✕Focusing only on technical skills when JD emphasizes experience levels

Frequently Asked Questions

Add them naturally in your experience section, skills section, and summary. Don't just list them—show how you used them. Example: Instead of 'Java', write 'Built REST APIs using Java Spring Boot'.
No. Focus on keywords you genuinely have experience with. Including skills you don't have will backfire in interviews. Prioritize 'required' skills over 'nice-to-have'.
Yes. Put the most important keywords (usually from the JD's first few bullet points) in your resume summary and near the top of your skills section. ATS often weighs position.
Absolutely. If the JD mentions 5 required skills and you only have 2, you've identified 3 skills to learn. This is especially useful for students planning coursework or certifications.
