How do I tailor my resume to a job description?

Last updated 1 April 2026

Resume tailoring rewrites your bullet points to match the language and keywords

of a specific job description. This is the fastest way to improve your ATS score.

How to tailor your resume:

  1. Open your resume in Resume Builder
  2. In the right panel, paste the job description or job URL
  3. Your ATS score calculates automatically
  4. Click Tailor entire resume to JD
  5. Wait 10 to 15 seconds for AI to rewrite your bullets
  6. A before and after comparison appears
  7. Review each change and click Accept all or accept individually

What changes: experience bullet points, skills order, and summary are rewritten to mirror the JD.

What does not change: your job titles, company names, dates, education, and skills you do not have.

AI never adds skills you do not actually have.

Tips:

  • Paste the full job description, not just the job title
  • Always review changes before accepting
  • Save the tailored version as a new version for this specific job

Free plan: 3 tailoring sessions per month

Pro plan: unlimited
