What a résumé analysis actually looks like
Below is one résumé and the complete analysis of it — the score and how it breaks down, which skills are backed by evidence and which are only claimed, what the dates say about real tenure, and every finding with the line of the document that triggered it.
Nothing here is written by hand. A fictional résumé written for this page. The analysis beside it is not — it is produced by the same engine that runs on a paying customer’s pipeline, at the moment you loaded this page. It runs in well under a second, with no AI provider involved — the same document always produces the same result.
The document that was read
212 words, 37 lines, about 1 page. Shown in full so you can check every claim below against it yourself — which is the whole point of an explainable result.

The score, and where it comes from
A single number is only useful if you can take it apart. These are the weighted components that produced it — the weights sum to 1, and the weighted total is the score above.
| Component | Score | Weight | What it measures |
|---|---|---|---|
| Machine readability | 100 | 25% | Whether an applicant tracking system can extract this document's text in the right order. |
| Contact details | 90 | 20% | Whether the details needed to reach you are present and machine-readable. |
| Structure & completeness | 100 | 20% | Whether the conventional resume sections exist and are findable by their headings. |
| Content quality | 85 | 20% | Whether the writing shows specific, measurable accomplishments rather than duties. |
| Consistency | 85 | 15% | Whether dates, formatting and history are internally consistent and unambiguous. |
Demonstrated skills versus listed skills
This is the distinction that matters most and the one a keyword match cannot make. A skill is demonstrated when the document describes work that used it; it is listed when it appears in a skills line and nowhere else. Both are facts about the résumé, and a recruiter should be told which is which rather than given one number.

Listed only — 11

- python
- sap
- six sigma
- tableau
- team leadership

Each of these appears in the skills line and nowhere else in the document. That is a statement about the words on the page, not about the candidate: “Vendor management” is listed here while the body describes negotiating a rate card with two transport vendors, and the engine will not join those up for you. It matches phrases, not concepts — deliberately, because a reader that treats every related word as evidence is a reader you can pass by stuffing keywords. So this column is where your interview questions come from, not a verdict.
What the dates and qualifications say
Experience

Summed from the date ranges in the document rather than taken from the summary line, which is why it can disagree with what a candidate states about themselves — and that disagreement is useful.

Note what is not claimed here. This résumé lists “MS Excel”, and a reader matching two-letter abbreviations would score that as a master’s degree. It is a spreadsheet.
Every finding, with the line that caused it
8 checks ran. Each one names what it found, why it matters, what to do about it, and quotes the document — so the result can be argued with, which is the only kind of result worth acting on.
Problems — 2
1 of 12 skills appear alongside language describing something you actually built or did. The rest appear only in a list, which a skilled interviewer will probe.
Fix: For each important skill, make sure at least one bullet shows you using it on real work.
Long unexplained gaps invite questions before anyone reads your accomplishments. Explaining them on the page takes the question off the table.
Fix: Account for the period directly — study, caregiving, contract work, a sabbatical. A single line is enough.

Worth knowing — 2
A LinkedIn profile is the standard way recruiters verify and expand on a resume.
Fix: Add your profile URL in plain text: linkedin.com/in/your-handle
Resumes conventionally omit "I" and "my" — the subject is understood.
Fix: Drop the pronoun: "I built the API" becomes "Built the API".

Single-column, plain-text structure with no tables or column artefacts. Parsers will read this document in the order you wrote it.
Found 4 recognised sections, parseable employment dates, and 12 named skills.
4 of 8 bullets carry a concrete figure — that is what makes an accomplishment verifiable.
Uses Mon YYYY (Jan 2023) and YYYY only (2023), which parsers handle reliably.
What a parser could and could not find
Before any judgement about the candidate, a screening system has to be able to read the document at all. This is what came out.
