Compare your CV with a job ad: free keyword match

Quick answer

Paste your CV and the job ad. The tool lists the terms the ad repeats most, shows which of them your CV already contains and which are missing, and gives a coverage percentage. Use it to spot real gaps you can truthfully fill, not to stuff keywords: employers read the CV, and a missing term you do not have should stay missing.

Frequently asked questions

How is the match percentage calculated?

From the terms the ad uses most often, after removing common words: the percentage is the share of those terms that also appear in your CV.

Should I add every missing word?

Only the ones that are true for you. A term you add has to be backed by your experience in an interview.

Is this how employers rank CVs?

No. Employers and their systems use their own methods; this is a plain word comparison that helps you see gaps.

Is my text stored?

No. The comparison runs in your browser and nothing is sent.
