Resume tailoring for software engineers
Software job posts are dense with tool names. Copying them all in is the fastest way to be asked about something you can't discuss.
Match by evidence
- List a language or framework only where a bullet shows you used it.
- Use the post's exact spelling for names, such as "PostgreSQL" in place of "Postgres", if you used it.
- Lead each role with the bullets closest to the post's stack.
- Keep numbers you can explain: latency, users, cost, time saved.
Check the gap
The match score tool shows which of the post's top words your resume lacks. For a tool you have used but not mentioned, add a bullet. For one you haven't used, leave it.
The tailoring app opens with checkout. Get early access and we'll email you once when it does. Meanwhile, the match score and the other free tools work in your browser now.
