What we check
Parseability and formatting
Whether an ATS can actually read your layout, or whether columns, tables, and images scramble it.

Structure and sections
Standard, recognisable headings and a clean top-to-bottom order the software can sort.
Impact and quantification

Length and concision
Whether the CV is the right length and free of filler that buries your strongest points.
Frequently asked questions
What is an ATS?
An applicant tracking system is the software most companies use to receive and filter job applications. It reads your CV into text, sorts it into fields, and lets recruiters search and rank candidates. Many applications never reach a human until the system surfaces them.
Is the ATS checker free?
Yes. Your first check is completely free with no signup. Create a free account to run more checks, see every fix, and generate a corrected version of your CV.
Will it fix my CV for me?
The checker tells you exactly what to fix and why. With a free account, MyPersona can then generate a tailored, ATS-safe version of your CV from your career profile, with those issues handled.
Do you store my CV?
The text you paste is used only to produce your score and is not stored as a document. When you sign up, your career profile is saved so you never start from scratch again.
