FREE CV CHECKER · NO ACCOUNT

Is your CV actually being read?

Eighteen checks on the file you actually send. No account, no card, and the file is read once and gone — your result is kept on this page for thirty minutes, then deleted.

Most applications are filtered by software before a person sees them. Upload your CV and find out, in about twenty seconds, what a hiring system can and cannot read — and exactly what to change.

  • Your file is never stored. It is read once and gone when the page finishes loading your result.
  • No account, no card. The score and the biggest fix are free.
  • Your results are kept 30 minutes, so you can come back for them on this page, then deleted.

Why this matters

A CV that cannot be read is not a weak application.
It is an invisible one.

Nobody writes to tell you the parser choked on your layout. You just never hear back, and you assume it was the experience. It usually was not.

Content missing

The format quietly loses you

Tables, text boxes and details tucked into a page header look perfect in Word and vanish on the way into a hiring system. A text box is not mis-read — its contents are dropped entirely.

The writing loses you the read

“Responsible for the migration” and “Led the migration” describe the same fact. One of them sounds like it was your idea. A recruiter reads the first seven words of each line and moves on.

The gaps get filled in for you

A gap is not a fault. An unexplained gap gets completed by whoever is reading, and their version is reliably worse than yours. One line closes it.

And then what

Every finding above is something ATS Engine already does for you.

The checker tells you what is wrong. The product is the part that fixes it, for every application, without you rewriting anything on a Sunday night.

It writes the CV, from your own words

A tailored CV for each posting, assembled only from experience already on file — and every claim checked back against the text of your own CV. Anything it cannot find is flagged rather than quietly handed to you.

Before you ask

The three questions people send us about this page.

Do you keep my CV?

No. The file is never written to our storage at all — not saved and then deleted, never saved. It is read once while your result is generated and is gone when that request ends. Your results are held for thirty minutes so you can come back for them from this page. They quote lines from your CV back at you, so they are your data — and after thirty minutes they are gone as well.

Why do you want my email for the rest?

Because this is free and we are a small company, and an email is the only thing we ask for. The score, the category breakdown and the single biggest fix stay free whether you give us one or not — we would rather show you something real first than make you pay in advance with your details.

Do you write the CV for me?

No. This page tells you what to change and why, in your own document’s words — it does not write, rewrite or hand anything back. Doing the writing is what ATS Engine does for subscribers: a tailored CV for each posting, assembled only from experience you already have, with every claim traced back to something you wrote. The checker is the diagnosis; the product is the treatment.

Is this the same as the paid product?

No. This checks how well your CV is built. ATS Engine scores you against a specific job posting, writes the tailored CV and cover letter from your own experience, and tracks every application so you never apply twice by accident. This page is the part we can give away.
