What this score measures

Forte's score measures how well your resume matches a specific job description. It is not a simulation of any particular ATS software. Different companies use different applicant tracking systems, and none of them publish their ranking algorithms. What Forte gives you is an honest, consistent signal of resume-to-JD fit that improves with every tailoring pass.

How the score is calculated

Keyword coverage

Forte checks how many of the job description's required and preferred skills appear in your resume, and whether they appear in the right context.

Experience alignment

The score accounts for whether your work history and projects demonstrate the level of experience the role is asking for, not just keyword presence.

Role signal match

Forte parses the job description for seniority, domain, and scope signals and checks how closely your resume reflects those expectations.

Before and after tailoring

The same resume, scored against the same job description before and after one tailoring pass.
