Score your QA resume
in three seconds.
Upload a PDF or paste text. We run five rule-based checks a QA hiring manager actually cares about - no model, no upload, no tracking. Everything happens in your browser.
Five signals hiring managers actually care about
Automation keyword coverage
25 PTSPlaywright, Selenium, Cypress, Appium, Postman, REST Assured, JMeter, k6, GitHub Actions, Jenkins, the exact strings recruiters search for.
Quantified impact
25 PTSNumbers, percentages, time saved, test counts, flake-rate reductions. Unquantified bullets read as generic.
Action verbs
20 PTSBuilt, automated, architected, reduced, migrated. Flags weak phrases like "responsible for" and "worked on".
ATS-safe formatting
15 PTSTables, text boxes, headers/footers, multi-column layouts, emojis, and image-only PDFs do not parse cleanly.
Section completeness
15 PTSContact, summary, experience, skills, education, the five sections every resume parser expects.
What your score means
You pass automated screens and hit the signal hiring managers are scanning for. Spend your time on the interview, not the resume.
The structure is right. You are typically one edit away, add quantified bullets or upgrade verbs and the score jumps.
Usually a missing section, no measurable results, or formatting an ATS cannot parse. Fix those first, everything else is noise.
Questions QA engineers ask before they paste
Is this better than generic ATS resume checkers?
For QA and SDET resumes, yes. Generic tools score against general corporate keywords and miss what matters here, framework coverage, flake-rate language, CI pipeline vocabulary, contract testing, test architecture. The rubric is built specifically for QA hiring signals.
Is my resume uploaded anywhere?
No. Text parsing, PDF extraction, and scoring all run inside your browser. There is no server roundtrip and we store nothing. You can verify, open DevTools › Network, score a resume, and watch for the absence of a request.
Will this work for SDET, QA Automation, and Manual QA resumes?
Yes. The keyword list covers all three, automation frameworks, API and performance tools, manual testing signals, CI/CD platforms, and the top languages. Manual QA resumes will score differently but the feedback still applies (quantified impact and action verbs matter everywhere).
What does a "good" QA resume look like?
Roughly: 5+ quantified bullets, 8+ automation/CI keywords you have actually used, every bullet opens with a past-tense action verb, a clean single-column format without tables or text boxes, and the five standard sections (Contact, Summary, Experience, Skills, Education).
Does a high score guarantee an interview?
No. It means you clear automated filters and meet the scanning bar a hiring manager uses. Whether you get the interview still depends on role fit, company hiring pace, and how well your experience matches the exact JD. What the score does guarantee is that you stop losing rounds to mechanical issues you could have fixed in an hour.
Why five checks and not ten?
More checks would not improve signal. The five here cover 90% of what makes a QA resume pass or fail a screen. Adding extra dimensions would dilute the feedback and slow you down when iterating.
Want AI to rewrite it, not just score it?
The checker above tells you what's wrong. Resume Studio- our paid AI tool - fixes it. Paste your resume plus a specific job description, and the AI reframes your bullets in the JD's language, coaches you through quantifying vague claims with real numbers, and generates a matching LinkedIn headline and cover letter. Truthful by design - it won't invent Playwright experience you don't have.
