What the scanner looks for
What does an ATS resume scanner check?
An ATS resume scanner extracts the text from your resume and inspects the characteristics that most often affect parsing and relevance: structure, contact details, headings, skills, experience, keywords and formatting.
Resume structure
Are the core sections present and clearly ordered?
Contact information
Can an email address and phone number be found as plain text?
Section headings
Do the headings match what parsers expect to find?
Skills
Which skills are listed, and how visible are they?
Experience
Are roles, companies and date ranges consistently presented?
Keywords
How much of the job description’s terminology appears in the resume?
Formatting
Tabs, table-like spacing, oversized lines and decorative glyphs.
Potential parsing issues
Every finding comes with a plain-language explanation.
The flow
Scan, understand, improve
The scan gives you three things in order: an objective reading of your document, an explanation of what may hold it back, and recommendations you can act on immediately.
Scan
Analyze your existing CV. The file is read in memory and discarded afterwards.
Understand
See what may need attention, with the metric that flagged it.
Improve
Apply the recommendations to strengthen your application.

The result
A report you can act on
Every scan returns an overall ATS score, a metric breakdown and a short list of specific improvements — never a wall of generic advice.
Scanning is the fastest way to find out whether a resume you already trust is ready for a job board. If it is, you will see that too: a clean report means you can spend your time tailoring content instead of guessing at formatting.
The scan scores the document from 0 to 100, and ResmiAI can build a CV written to that same checklist — so a CV tailored to the job you are targeting can reach 100 on the analysis.
A scan is a starting point, not a verdict
A scan cannot know how a specific employer configures their system, and it does not replace your judgement about your own experience. Treat the findings as prompts to review your document.
Answers
Frequently asked questions
What does an ATS resume scanner check?
It extracts the text from your resume and inspects structure, contact details, section headings, skills, experience, keywords and formatting patterns that commonly affect parsing.
Is a resume scan the same as tailoring my resume?
No. A scan tells you how your current document reads. Tailoring is a separate step where you change the content for a specific role — ResmiAI can do both, but they are different actions.
Which file types can I scan?
PDF and DOCX up to 10 MB. Text-based files work best; a scanned image of a resume cannot be read reliably.
Do I need a job description to scan?
No. The resume-only scan covers structure, formatting, contact details and parsing. Adding a job description extends the scan with keyword, skills and experience alignment.
How long does a scan take?
Seconds. Reading the resume is immediate; if a new job description needs to be understood first, that happens once and is then reused for every later scan of the same posting.
Is the scan private?
Yes. Your file is processed in memory and is never written to storage. Only the anonymous result is retained so the same scan can be replayed without repeating the work.
