Frequently asked questions

What are ATS keywords?

ATS keywords are the skills, tools and qualifications that applicant tracking systems look for when they filter resumes. Using the posting's own words, where they are true for you, helps your resume get read.

How many keywords should I include?

Aim for 10-15 of the top keywords, written into your experience and skills. Repeating them without context reads as stuffing to people and to software.

Is my data stored?

No. The extraction runs in your browser. Nothing is sent to a server.

Should I use exact keyword matches?

Where you can, yes. Many applicant tracking systems match exact phrases rather than synonyms, so use the posting's wording when it describes what you did.
