About RankMyCV
RankMyCV, whose tools have moved to ratemy.cv, is a hosted resume checker. You upload a resume as PDF, DOCX or TXT, or paste the text, optionally add a job description, and receive an ATS score, missing and matched keywords, section-by-section feedback, quick wins and suggested line rewrites. Without a job posting it gives general feedback. The site says three scans are free with no signup, and that files are processed in memory and not stored.
Other analyses cover a cover letter, a combined application check, a six-second recruiter scan simulation, a LinkedIn profile, consistency between resume and LinkedIn, and decoding a job description, including red flags in a posting. Paid options include a resume rewrite delivered as two DOCX files and a LinkedIn rewrite, each at $7, and a Pro plan at $9 per month for unlimited scans.
