Jobscan

What is Jobscan?

Jobscan compares a resume with a job description and returns a match rate out of 100, the keywords and skills the resume is missing, and checks on ATS readability and formatting. Given a company name or job link, it detects the applicant tracking system the employer uses. It also offers an AI resume optimizer and builder, a LinkedIn profile optimizer, a cover letter generator, a job tracker with a Chrome extension, Auto Apply credits and AI interview practice.
