About this tool

The Resume Keyword Scanner helps you see which important words and phrases from a job description are missing from your resume. Many companies use applicant tracking systems (ATS) that rank candidates by keyword match. Adding the right terms—naturally, in your summary, skills, or experience—can improve your chances of getting shortlisted.

Paste the full job description in one box and your resume text in the other. The tool highlights which JD keywords appear in your resume and which are missing. Use the results to update your resume before applying, without stuffing keywords awkwardly.

Frequently asked questions

  • What is an ATS and why do keywords matter?

    An Applicant Tracking System (ATS) is software used by recruiters to filter resumes. Many ATS rank or filter by keyword match. Including relevant terms from the job description (skills, tools, qualifications) helps your resume get seen by humans.

  • Should I add every missing keyword to my resume?

    No. Add only keywords that honestly apply to you. Work them into your summary, skills section, or bullet points in a natural way. Keyword stuffing can backfire and hurt readability.
