FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about WriteCV.

An ATS (Applicant Tracking System) score measures how well your resume is optimized for the automated screening software that over 98% of large companies use (per Jobscan). WriteCV scores your resume across four dimensions: keywords, content quality, impact strength, and structural formatting.

ATS software parses your resume into structured fields (name, experience, skills), then matches keywords against the job description. Candidates are ranked by relevance. If your resume uses tables, graphics, or non-standard headers, the ATS may fail to parse it entirely, resulting in automatic rejection regardless of qualifications.

A score of 85 or above is rated Excellent and means your resume is well-optimized. Scores between 80 and 84 are Good but have room for improvement. Scores below 80 indicate areas that need work. The average WriteCV user improves from 62 to 87 after applying AI suggestions.

WriteCV uses a dual-method approach: deterministic structural checks (formatting, sections, contact info) combined with AI content analysis (keyword relevance, bullet impact, quantification). This mirrors how real ATS systems evaluate resumes, giving you an honest, realistic score.

Yes. The resume builder, all 20+ professional templates, and PDF export are completely free with no limits. ATS scoring and AI-powered suggestions use credits. You get free credits when you sign up.

A clean, single-column layout saved as a text-based PDF works best. Use standard section headers like Experience, Education, and Skills. Avoid tables, text boxes, graphics, multi-column layouts, and placing contact info in headers or footers. All 20+ WriteCV templates are designed to be ATS-compatible.

Use WriteCV's Job Description Match feature. Paste any job posting and WriteCV extracts required skills and keywords, scores how well your resume matches, then generates targeted bullet rewrites to close the gaps for that specific role.

Most tools just tell you what's wrong - we fix it. WriteCV provides honest, dual-method scoring then generates specific, per-bullet AI suggestions you can apply with one click. No generic advice, no keyword stuffing. Every suggestion is quality-filtered to sound natural.

After scoring your resume, WriteCV generates specific rewrites for every weak bullet point. Each suggestion is quantified, impact-driven, and written in a natural voice. You can apply suggestions with one click and see your score update in real time.

Yes. Your resume data is encrypted in transit and at rest. We never sell your data, share it with third parties, or use it to train AI models. You can delete your account and all associated data at any time.
