The examples are made up. Choosing one sends and saves nothing.

What does the quick ATS test check?

It checks the two things a parser trips over first: whether the text can be read cleanly, and whether the CV has the sections and dates a parser expects. The result is a score out of 45, 25 for parseability and 20 for structure, with the three costliest findings first and every other finding one click away. It is not the full analysis's score.

What does it not check?

The quick test reads pasted text only, so it cannot see layout problems inside a PDF or DOCX such as columns, tables or text in images. It does not compare your CV with a job ad. The full analysis does both and needs a free account.
