About WriteCV

We help job seekers get past ATS filters and into interviews. No fluff, no inflated scores -- just honest feedback that makes your resume stronger.

Our Story

I spent eight years as a recruiter and hiring manager at mid-size tech companies. During that time, I reviewed thousands of resumes -- and I watched great candidates get filtered out before a human ever saw their application. Not because they lacked skills, but because their formatting confused the ATS or their bullet points didn't use the right language.

That always bothered me. I'd sit in hiring meetings knowing we'd missed strong people simply because their resume didn't play well with the software. The existing tools out there weren't much help either -- most gave vague advice, inflated scores to make you feel good, or tried to upsell you on services you didn't need.

So I built WriteCV. I wanted a tool that scores resumes the way actual ATS systems work, gives specific suggestions you can act on immediately, and doesn't sugarcoat the results. If your resume needs work, we tell you exactly what to fix and why it matters.

Founder & Head of Content

Former recruiter and hiring manager with 8+ years in talent acquisition at mid-size tech companies. I've sat on both sides of the hiring table and seen firsthand how ATS systems filter candidates -- often unfairly.

My focus at WriteCV is making sure our scoring reflects how real hiring pipelines work, our suggestions actually move the needle, and every piece of content we publish is genuinely useful for job seekers.

What We Believe

Honest Scoring

We don't inflate scores to make you feel good. If your resume scores a 62, we tell you it's a 62 -- and show you exactly how to get it to 85+.

Quality Over Quantity

One well-targeted resume beats fifty generic ones. Our tools help you tailor your resume for each role, not mass-apply and hope for the best.
