ATS checker questions

What does the PopCVs ATS checker check?

It reads your resume the way applicant tracking systems do and scores it out of 100 on contact details, sections, bullets and keywords, with a breakdown by category and a prioritised list of fixes. The check runs on your resume as you import or build it in PopCVs.

Is the ATS check free?

Yes: 1 free ATS check every day. Further checks that day use 1 credit each, and new accounts start with free credits.

What is a good ATS score?

Aim for 75 or above, and a high keyword match for the specific job you're applying to. The fixes list tells you exactly what's holding the score back.

Can it compare my resume to a job description?

Yes. The job match shows which keywords from a job description your resume covers and which are missing, then tailoring rewrites your resume toward that job using only facts already in it.

Does it work outside India?

Yes. It works on any English-language resume, wherever you apply: LinkedIn, Indeed, Naukri or company career pages.
