Using this criteria, we grade your resume on a scale of 0-100%, according to best practices that have been proven to drive hiring decisions.
A good resume score is 80% or higher.
This means that your current resume version aligns with most of the recommended best practices, and is not missing any vital information.
While we recommend addressing all of the issues that are highlighted by in the resume analysis, they won’t always have equal importance.
The exact order of priority will depend on your particular situation and which position you're applying for, but we urge you to address the issues from the “Resume Structure” group first if present. These issues are related to missing sections, missing information, or information that lacks completeness.
You want to maximize every inch of your resume to make the greatest possible impact/impression, so we suggest first making sure that your resume has all of the information it needs. Once you’ve taken care of that, then move on to updating/optimizing the information in the best possible way.
