What is a good resume score?
On ResumeGrade's 0–10 scale, 8 or above is strong and competitive, 5–7 means a solid resume with clear room to improve, and below 5 signals issues a recruiter or ATS would likely catch. Your score comes with a plain-English rationale, so you always know why — not just the number.
The overall score is built from the dimensions recruiters weigh most:
Experience
Depth, relevance, and progression of your roles.
Achievement impact
Quantified results versus vague responsibilities.
Technical skills
Coverage and evidence of the skills your target role needs.
Structure & readability
Layout, length, and how easily it scans.
ATS compatibility
Parse rate and keyword match for the job.

Resume score FAQ
A resume checker analyzes your resume the way an applicant tracking system (ATS) and a recruiter would, then scores it and suggests fixes. ResumeGrade parses your uploaded resume, checks it against ATS signals and hiring-manager criteria, and returns an overall score, ATS score, missing keywords, bullet rewrites, red flags, and ranked improvements — in about 60 seconds.
