> ATSAlign is an AI-powered ATS resume checker and optimizer at atsalign.com for job seekers worldwide, with dedicated pages for US employer ATS systems (Workday, Greenhouse, Lever, iCIMS, Taleo, Ashby) and for India. It analyzes a resume against any job description, calculates an ATS compatibility score from 0 to 100, identifies missing keywords, and AI-optimizes the resume content. Guests get 1 free analysis a day; every signed-up account gets 2 free analyses every day. ATSAlign Pro, a one-time prepaid pass with no automatic renewal, lifts the daily limit (fair use applies).

## What ATSAlign Does

ATSAlign helps job seekers tailor a resume to each job, so it parses cleanly in an applicant tracking system (ATS) and shows up when recruiters search and rank applicants, by:
- Calculating an ATS score (0 to 100) showing how well a resume matches a job description
- Identifying the missing keywords and skills the job description asks for
- AI-rewriting resume bullet points to include the missing keywords you choose, without fabricating experience
- Checking that the resume's text can be read and its standard sections (Experience, Education, Skills) found
- Supporting PDF and DOCX uploads (AI optimization outputs DOCX)

> **Answer: What is ATSAlign?**
> ATSAlign is a free, AI-powered ATS resume checker available at atsalign.com. Job seekers upload their resume (PDF or DOCX) and paste any job description to receive an ATS compatibility score from 0 to 100 in seconds. A free check shows the full match score and the first 2 missing must-have keywords, and says so if the text in the file cannot be read; the full list of missing skills and terms comes with ATSAlign Pro. No account or credit card is required for the first check. For users who want automated optimization, ATSAlign Pro's AI rewrites resume bullet points to naturally include the missing keywords they choose, without fabricating experience. The optimized resume downloads as a DOCX: a DOCX resume keeps its own layout, and a PDF resume is rebuilt in a new, clean layout. ATSAlign works with job descriptions from any platform, including LinkedIn, Indeed, Glassdoor, and company career pages run on Workday, Greenhouse, Lever, iCIMS, Taleo, or Ashby. It is built by Varun Gandhi and serves job seekers worldwide, with dedicated pages for US employer ATS systems and for India.

## Main Tool

Guests get 1 free check a day; sign up for 2 free every day.

> **Answer: How to check your ATS score for free?**
> To check your ATS score for free, go to atsalign.com/ats-score-checker.

## US Employer ATS Systems

Most large US employers take applications through an applicant tracking system (ATS). ATSAlign has pages for six widely used ones, each explaining how that system handles a resume, with the same free check against the job description. ATSAlign is independent and is not affiliated with Workday, Greenhouse, Lever, iCIMS, Oracle or Ashby.

- [Workday Resume Checker](https://www.atsalign.com/workday-resume-checker): Workday Recruiting turns an uploaded resume into a structured candidate profile, and recruiters search and filter those parsed fields, so a skill caught in a table, a text box or a second column can be missing from the profile they search. The page checks a resume against any Workday job description for missing keywords and parsing risks.
- [Greenhouse ATS Resume Checker](https://www.atsalign.com/greenhouse-ats-resume-checker): Greenhouse does not reject a resume for a low keyword match on its own. Recruiters find applicants with keyword search and grade them on a scorecard drawn from the job description, and automatic rejections come from knockout rules on application questions. The page shows which skills and terms from a Greenhouse job a resume is missing.
- [Lever ATS Resume Checker](https://www.atsalign.com/lever-ats-resume-checker): Lever files each applicant's parsed resume into a searchable candidate database, and recruiters find people by searching job titles, skills and tools, so a resume without those terms may never appear in their results. The page lists the searchable terms a resume is missing for any Lever job.
- [iCIMS Resume Checker](https://www.atsalign.com/icims-resume-checker): iCIMS parses a resume into a candidate profile, and employers that use its AI matching can rank applicants by how well that profile fits the job description, so the posting's exact wording matters (JavaScript, not only JS). The page checks a resume against any iCIMS job for missing terms and for formatting that hurts parsing.
- [Taleo Resume Checker](https://www.atsalign.com/taleo-resume-checker): Oracle Taleo is an older enterprise ATS with a strict parser and prescreening questions that can disqualify an application before anyone reads the resume, so plain section headings, a single-column DOCX file and careful answers matter most. The page flags the parsing and keyword problems for any Taleo job.
- [Ashby Resume Checker](https://www.atsalign.com/ashby-resume-checker): Ashby's AI-assisted application review reads each application against criteria the recruiter sets and points to the evidence it found, and a person makes the decision; knockout rules on application questions can still reject automatically. The page shows which required skills a resume is missing or states weakly for any Ashby job.

Job boards, through the free ATSAlign Chrome extension:

- [Indeed Resume Checker](https://www.atsalign.com/indeed-resume-checker): The free ATSAlign Chrome extension shows a resume-to-job match score and the missing keywords directly on Indeed job pages, with no need to copy the job description into another site.
- [LinkedIn Resume Checker](https://www.atsalign.com/linkedin-resume-checker): The same free extension shows the match score and the missing keywords on LinkedIn job postings as you browse.

> **Answer: Can an ATS checker tell me whether Workday, Greenhouse or iCIMS will reject my resume?**
> No outside tool can see an employer's ATS settings, its knockout questions or the searches its recruiters run, so no checker can promise that a resume will pass. What ATSAlign shows is what those systems and recruiters work from: whether the resume parses into clean text and standard sections, and which skills, tools and terms from the job description it is missing. Most ATS setups do not reject a resume on a match score alone. Automatic rejections usually come from knockout questions (work authorization, location, a required license or degree); after that, recruiters search and rank applicants by the job's keywords and qualifications, sometimes with AI help. A resume that parses cleanly and uses the job description's own terms is easier to find and to rank.

It works on LinkedIn, Indeed, Greenhouse, and Lever job pages, and on Naukri in India.

## FAQ

> **Answer: What is a good ATS score?**
> On ATSAlign's 0 to 100 scale, a good ATS score is 80 or above: at that level your resume closely matches the job description's keywords and skills and parses cleanly. Scores between 60 and 79 mean some important requirements are missing, and below 60 means many are. The score measures fit; it is not a pass mark that employers use. Most ATS setups do not reject a resume on a match score alone: automatic rejections usually come from knockout questions such as work authorization or a required license, and recruiters then search and rank applicants by the job's keywords and qualifications, so a higher match makes your resume easier to find. To improve your ATS score, mirror the exact terminology from the job description, include both the hard and soft skills listed in the requirements, and use a clean single-column format without tables or graphics that ATS parsers cannot read. A free ATSAlign check shows your match score and the first 2 missing must-have keywords, and ATSAlign Pro shows the full list and can rewrite your resume bullet points to include the ones you choose. Check your score every time you apply, because keyword requirements vary by company and role.

> **Answer: Why is my resume getting rejected by ATS?**
> Usually it is not a score that rejects you. Most ATS setups do not discard a resume for a low keyword match on their own; applications are rejected automatically when they fail a knockout question, such as work authorization, location, or a required degree or license. Everything else waits in a pool that recruiters search and rank by the job's keywords and qualifications, sometimes with AI ranking tools, and a resume that is missing the job description's terms, or that the parser could not read, rarely comes up, so no one sees it. The most common causes are: (1) missing keywords: you have the skills but did not use the exact terms the job description uses; (2) poor formatting: tables, multi-column layouts, headers, footers, and graphics that the ATS parser cannot read; (3) generic resumes: sending the same resume to every job without tailoring it to the job description; (4) a knockout answer that misses a hard requirement. For the first three, use ATSAlign's free ATS checker: it shows your match score and the first 2 missing must-have keywords, tells you if it cannot read the text in your file, and lets you verify your score before applying.
