Resume optimizer + cover letters + interview prep. All included free.
An AI resume optimizer analyses your resume against job descriptions to identify gaps, suggest improvements, and ensure your resume passes ATS (Applicant Tracking System) filters. ApplyArc's tool highlights missing keywords, suggests stronger achievement wording, and rates your resume's relevance to specific roles.
Most large companies use Applicant Tracking Systems to filter resumes before a human sees them. ATS software scans for keywords, job titles, and formatting. If your resume doesn't match the job description's key terms, it may be automatically rejected, even if you're qualified. Our optimizer helps you include the right keywords naturally.
Not automatically. The AI provides specific, actionable suggestions: which keywords to add, which achievements to emphasise, and how to rephrase bullet points for more impact. You control the final content. Think of it as having a career coach reviewing your resume, not replacing your voice.
Yes! The free plan includes 5 AI generations per month. Enough to optimize your resume for multiple job applications. Pro users get unlimited generations plus additional features like interview prep and salary negotiation tools.
Our optimizer works with any text-based resume. You can paste your resume text directly or copy from a Word document or PDF. The tool focuses on content optimization. Keywords, achievements, and relevance, rather than visual formatting.
Templates give you a visual layout but don't help with content. Our AI optimizer analyses what you've written against the specific job you're applying for, then suggests concrete improvements. It's about making your content more compelling and ATS-friendly, not just making it look pretty.
