Editorial standards & methodology

Who this guide is for

Job seekers worldwide applying through online portals, job boards, and employer ATS systems—especially when applications go silent after submit.

Who should not rely on this alone

This advice does not replace legal immigration counsel, executive branding consultants, or guaranteed interview outcomes. It cannot override hard filters (visa, clearance, degree requirements) you do not meet.

Research methodology

Guidance is based on documented applicant tracking system behavior (text extraction, keyword search, recruiter workflow), parse testing via the free resume checker, and editorial review against our scoring methodology. We do not claim affiliation with ATS vendors.

Limitations

ResumeIQ scores parser health, keyword overlap, and format signals—not hiring manager preference, culture fit, or network referrals. Scores are estimates, not employment guarantees.

Privacy & file security

Standard checks process your file for analysis—we do not sell resume data. See privacy policy for retention details. Export a copy before editing; we recommend not uploading confidential employer documents you are not permitted to share.
