Why it matters

Most resumes are screened before a human sees them

Large companies routinely receive hundreds of applications per opening, and many use an ATS to parse and rank resumes before a recruiter ever opens one. A strong candidate can still go unseen if their resume is missing standard section headings, lacks contact details the system can find, or simply doesn't use the same language as the job posting. Checking your compatibility score first — and fixing what's honestly worth fixing — is one of the highest-leverage five minutes you can spend on a job application.
