Your resume is getting filtered out before anyone reads it

Most ATS systems score your resume against the job description before a recruiter ever sees it. If your keywords don't match, you're invisible — even if you're qualified. Touchdwn scans your resume against the exact job posting and shows you what's missing.

Why your resume keeps getting rejected

  • ATS software scores keyword overlap between your resume and the job description — a low score means auto-rejection before human review
  • Job descriptions use specific terminology that you may describe differently on your resume (e.g. JD says "CI/CD pipelines", your resume says "automated deployments")
  • Required skills listed in the posting but absent from your resume tank your match score instantly
  • Soft skills buried in the JD — "cross-functional collaboration", "stakeholder communication" — are also scanned and scored

A real keyword gap example

The job description says: "Experience with cloud-native architecture, containerization (Docker/Kubernetes), and infrastructure as code (Terraform)."

Your resume says: "Built and deployed scalable backend services on AWS."

You probably did use Docker and Terraform. But if you didn't write those words, the ATS doesn't know that — and neither does the recruiter skimming 200 applications.
