What is an ATS and why must your resume be compatible?
An ATS (Applicant Tracking System) is the recruitment software that receives applications before the recruiter does. It reads your resume, looks for the keywords of the role, checks how the document is structured, and gives it a compatibility score. All of it happens before a human opens your file.
Over 75% of large companies and 40% of SMEs run one: Workday, Greenhouse, Taleo (Oracle) and SAP SuccessFactors are the most common. A badly formatted resume, or one that does not use the words of the posting, can be dropped regardless of the candidate's experience. Which is why it is worth testing yours before you apply.
To get through the filter, your resume needs the exact keywords from the job posting and sections the machine recognises: experience, skills, education. What blocks automatic reading is multi-column tables, images, and graphic headers standing in for text.
Our free resume analysis tool walks the same path: it reads your resume the way Workday or Taleo would, and shows you what the machine keeps. In under 30 seconds you have an ATS compatibility score out of 100, the list of missing keywords, and enough detail to fix the document. No account to create.
What does our ATS test actually check?
Our ATS test grades your resume on 6 dimensions: General (overall coherence), Experience (job titles, durations), Education (degrees, institutions), Skills (hard and soft), Language (spelling, register), and Other (additional sections). Each dimension gets its own score out of 100. The report also lists the keywords that job offers in your sector use and your resume does not.
How to improve your ATS score after the test
After the test, Epimoni lists the exact terms to add. Start with the missing keywords: they account for roughly 40% of your score and take minutes to fix. Then check the format, a PDF exported from Word is read correctly, a scanned one is not. And standardise your section headings: "Work Experience" rather than "Career".
Once your ATS score is up, the next step is to match your resume to a job offer, or generate your cover letter or practice an interview before you send the application.

What is considered a good ATS score?
Below 50/100, your resume will likely be filtered out before it reaches a recruiter.
Between 50 and 79/100, it can get through, but there is still work to do before you can count on it.
You're in the green zone: recruitment software reads your resume properly (Workday, Greenhouse, Taleo).
Epimoni reads your resume, gives you your score out of 100, and tells you what to change to reach 80, the point where your application arrives intact on a recruiter's desk.
