AVOID! Jobscan is an unreliable waste of time & money I just spent three hours on your platform, converting my résumé to ATS and updating the content - THREE HOURS! - when I got a pop-up informing me that job scan is experiencing technical difficulties and cannot save my work & do I want to revert to the original? Are you effing kidding me – three hours I just wasted - all my work gone. Shame on jobscan.co!!! You better believe I’m going to find every platform containing your reviews and write About what an unreliable waste of time your product is. JOBSCAN IS A USELESS WASTE OF MONEY - unreliable & poorly designed - AVOID AT ALL COSTS - for ATS conversion use to another platform!!!!

I got a job with 1 resume! I had been looking for work a month prior to using jobscan with ZERO interviews. The first resume I sent out using Jobscan, I landed a job. Sounds too good to be true, but I am not a paid shill. ATS software (such as Greenhouse) are very powerful screening tools. You have to include keywords in your resume so your name doesn't appear as applicant #100.

Jobscan ATS scan best I tested, but still many limitations Jobscan, ATS check (free) is best of all the ATS checks available. Significantly better than enhancvPRO ($50/month). That is jobscan key seller. However 1. needs to be much more transparent about the assumptions of the ATS model used - more than one ATS model used by recruiters and ATS model continually is improved (likely faster than jobscan updated). 2. Many roles, ATS check is irrelevant or is custom built for organisation. Smaller organisation. Or fewer applicants. 3. Does not help with getting past the more important gatekeeper, recruitment system (e.g. Workable). For example, Workable is particularly awful as it drops part of your resume PDF, when it is sent. Most people do not realise this unless you have worked with workable. 4. No ability to add in your own cringe words group, culture-avoid words group. aka ability to remove amercian fluff words which in my country guarantee your resume gets ignored.

Getting NO interviews! I was having a really hard time getting an interview after being on sabbatical for almost 13 years. I finally found out most companies and recruiters are now using an ATS or Applicant Tracking Software to eliminate applicants who do not meet the job description skills and/or qualifications. I had to revamp my entire resume. Big eyeroll! After revamping it 3 different times, I finally found the Jobscan site which includes a template that gives you tips on how to make a ATS friendly resume and Cover Letter. There are tips from recruiters, resume advice, and these are just the free resources. They do have a paid service which, I have yet to try, but may in the near future. Great site!

If you apply for jobs which have 100 or… If you apply for jobs which have 100 or more applicants it is very likely that your CV will not be read by a human but rather being filtered by an ATS. So, if you write "MS" instead of "Microsoft" and the latter form is used in the role description, you might already loose some points. Jobscan helps you to avoid these things, is very easy to use and saves you a huge amount of time if you have to write a lot of applications. What is great, that it shows you not only the missing keyword but also the context in the role description so that you can rephrase your CV accordingly.
