Resume keyword scanner
A resume keyword scanner is only helpful if the keywords come from the posting in front of you. The scanner here reads the saved job, compares it with the resume version you choose, and lists both sides.
What counts as a keyword
Tools, methods, and role language the description actually contains: SQL, stakeholder management, A/B testing, and the rest of a practical skills list, plus short acronyms written in caps. Generic words like “team” are ignored.
You can sort past scans by score, role, company, or date when you come back to them.
Use the gap
Missing keywords are suggestions, not a quota. The bullet rewrites try to place one missing skill in a line you already wrote, instead of adding a junk skills paragraph.
Save the job first if you will apply to more than one role. The next scan starts from the same career profile.
