How to Tailor Your Resume to Any Job Description Using AI

Get a job-specific, ATS-friendly resume in under 30 seconds — 1 free optimization • powered by AI

Published on October 30, 2025

Applying to jobs but not getting interviews? You’re not alone.

Most resumes get rejected by Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) before a human ever sees them — simply because they don’t match the keywords and structure in the job description.

The solution? Tailor your resume for every role.

But rewriting your resume 10 times is exhausting. That’s where AI-powered resume tailoring comes in.

Why Generic Resumes Fail

  • They miss role-specific keywords (e.g., “CI/CD”, “API testing”, “Agile”)
  • They don’t highlight relevant achievements
  • They look identical for a QA Manager role and a DevOps Engineer role

Fact: 75% of resumes are filtered out by ATS before reaching a recruiter.

  • Preserves your authentic voice and key achievements

Frequently asked questions

How accurate is the AI?

AI is effective at matching keywords and reframing achievements — but you should confirm factual accuracy and pick the phrasing you prefer.

Will it invent things not on my resume?

No. The tool suggests rewrites and highlights; it does not fabricate employment history. Always verify before downloading.

How many times can I optimize for free?

Registered Users get one free optimization; registered users get additional free optimizations based on promotions and account plan.

Is the output ATS-friendly?

Yes — output uses plain headings, bullets and conventional fonts to maximize ATS compatibility. If you choose a creative template, check formatting before submitting to an application portal.
