Why do you need an ATS resume?
Most companies today use Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) to filter resumes quickly. If your resume isn’t optimized for the ATS, it might not get noticed by recruiters, even if you’re highly qualified.
Just like a website needs to be optimized for Google, your resume needs to be optimized for the ATS.
An optimized resume focuses on the skills, experience, and qualifications that are most relevant to the job you’re applying to. It’s also formatted correctly so the ATS can read it.
Use Jobscan’s resume review tool to create an ATS-friendly resume that will impress hiring managers and get more job interviews!
Get expert feedback on your resume instantly
We built our software using input from real, professional recruiters. This means you’ll get expert, dependable advice on how to showcase your skills and experience to catch the eye of hiring managers.
Get recruiter tips on:
- Measurable results
- Job level match
- Words to avoid
Our tool reviews the following resume information:
Applicant tracking systems handle different file types in unique ways (.doc, .pdf, etc.). Discover if your resume’s file format is optimized for ATS compatibility.
Not all fonts are ATS-friendly, which could lead to your resume being overlooked when a hiring manager conducts an ATS search.
ATS relies on clear section headings to categorize your information. Unconventional headings could cause critical errors.
Proper date formatting ensures the ATS accurately calculates your work experience, which is vital for hiring decisions.
An ATS may miss parts of your resume if improperly formatted. We’ll confirm that everything is fully readable.
We’ll identify weak or ambiguous language and suggest stronger, more effective word choice for a clear and impactful message.
ATS can’t read images. Our scanner ensures all your content is in text form for accurate parsing.
Some table formats can confuse ATS software. We check your resume to avoid such issues.

“I was having a hard time getting interviews, and every single one I submitted after using the tool received a response – either a screening or an invitation to interview.”
Thelonious B.
“I used Jobscan Pro throughout my job search to compare the job description to my resume. I really liked that there were in-depth tips based on what kind of ATS some jobs use to parse keywords and save time.”
“Jobscan helped me immensely. I applied to over 250 jobs over about 2 years and got only one job interview and no offer. I started using Jobscan, applied to only 12 jobs in 3 months and received 5 interviews and landed an awesome job. […] This software is incredible and worth every penny.”
“Once I signed up for Jobscan, I ran my resume with a job that I had applied for previously and found the my resume was really lacking! I used Power Edit and suggestions to rework the resume and resent it to a company that I really had interest in! Almost immediately, I got a positive response and landed an interview!”

Service: resume review, real reviews from actual satisfied customers.
Avery and The Muse have been a God send! She coached and assisted me on my resume. From the beginning of initial contact to the end when I received the final version of my resume was nothing but a positive and uplifting experience. I dreaded even discussing my background and experience as I tend to focus on negatives when it comes to myself, but my coaching session with Avery was such a positive experience and I'm so glad that she was able to assist me. She did a phenomenal job with all of the information she gathered and I could be happier. Now I'm excited to apply.
Ryan was great to work with from beginning to end! He listened carefully to everything I had to say and was able to synthesize the information to help me articulate it very clearly on my resume. Not only was he easy to talk to, he was also extremely responsive and had a quick turnaround on each round of edits. The final product was professional, polished, and something I'm now proud to share with future employers. I would definitely work with him again!
I really enjoyed working with Neely! She really did go above and beyond to make sure that I was satisfied. Working with her actually made me excited to start looking for jobs again and to edit my job application materials. Neely is super responsive and she continued to integrate my feedback throughout the process. It was such a pleasure meeting her and working with her and I'm sure I'll be asking her for additional advice/assistance in the future!
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: why are some coaches more expensive than others.
Muse coaches are broken down into three price levels: Mentor, Coach, and Master Coach. All of our coaches have been vetted and are backed by the Muse, but they each offer something different.
Mentors have fewer years of experience, but specialize in various areas and offer services at an affordable price point for those on a budget.
Coaches are great for mid-career professionals who are looking for an experienced coach to help them take the next step.
Master Coaches have the most experience, typically working with senior leaders and executives. They’ve helped hundreds of clients over the years.
In addition to the experience of the coach, some services offer you more time or interactions with your coach as the level increases. These differences are listed on individual service pages.
Q: I’ve never done anything like this. What should I expect?
The exact deliverables for a specific service are available on that service’s page. As far as working with a coach, you will receive personalized attention from a career expert who will use impactful questions to best understand your career objectives and work toward meeting them. Expect a mix guiding questions, thought partnership, and action steps to help you with what comes next.
Like any other relationship, the more you put into your sessions, the more you'll get out. Those who get the best results are receptive to feedback and open to doing the work after the session is over.
Q: This is a huge investment for me. What happens if I do not enjoy the service? Can I get a refund?
We’re happy to report that these problems arise on less than 5% of all sessions, as evidenced by our average rating of 4.85/5.00 stars.
