Frequently asked questions
What is an ATS resume check?
An ATS (Applicant Tracking System) resume check looks for clear structure, readable section headings, and relevant keywords so automated systems can parse your resume. Career Paladin runs a quick, in-browser analysis of the text you paste—no account required for the basics.
Do you store my resume when I use this tool?
This page analyzes text in your browser. We do not upload your pasted text to Career Paladin servers for this basic check. Always review our Privacy Policy for how other features (like cloud save) may work when you are signed in.
Does a good score guarantee a job interview?
No. ATS optimization is only one part of hiring. Recruiters and hiring managers still review fit, experience, and context. Use this tool as a checklist, then tailor your resume to each role.
How do I get ATS-friendly templates?
Browse our free resume and CV templates, then open the builder to edit. All templates use layouts and fonts designed to parse well in common applicant systems.
