Readability Scorer · free · no signup

Score your resume for the six-second skim

See your resume the way a recruiter scans it.

Recruiters don't read resumes, they skim them — six to eight seconds, mostly the first words of each bullet. The Readability Scorer grades your resume on exactly what survives that skim: how many bullets open with a strong action verb, how many carry a real number, how many start with weak filler like ‘Responsible for’, and how much passive voice slows it down.

You get a score out of 100, the key stats, and specific fixes — then you can rewrite the weak lines in Bullet Booster and check your fit against a real job in TrueFit. Metrics survive skimming; adjectives don't.

✓Score for action verbs, quantified results, weak openers
✓Flags passive voice and length problems
✓Specific, honest fixes — not vanity metrics
✓Free, instant, runs in your browser
