Turn your experience into a clear, recruiter‑ready profile.
CandidateMatch reads your resume, understands the roles you want, and scores you the way a modern ATS and recruiter would—then tells you what to improve, step by step.
Free to start. No credit card required. Built for candidates, trusted by recruiters.
How CandidateMatch works
Under the hood we act like a modern applicant tracking system that both candidates and recruiters can understand. You bring your experience and roles. We handle the structure, scoring, and explanation.
Understand your goals
Tell us the roles and level you are targeting. Recruiters define the role profile they are hiring for.
Parse & structure
We turn free‑text resumes and job descriptions into structured skills, experience, and requirements.
Score with evidence
Our engine scores candidates against role rubrics, highlighting concrete examples that support each skill.
Explain & act
Candidates see what to fix. Recruiters see why someone is a strong, medium, or weak match.
See CandidateMatch in motion
A rotating gallery of the tools candidates and recruiters use every day—fit scores, explanations, and evidence, all in one workspace.
What candidates can do
You stay in control. CandidateMatch simply makes it obvious how your experience lines up with the roles you want—and what to change before you hit apply.
See your match score
Upload your resume, pick a role, and see how you score against what recruiters actually look for.
Why it matters: Know in advance which roles are worth your time.
Spot gaps & easy wins
We flag missing skills, weak sections, and vague bullets that could be costing you interviews.
Why it matters: Fix issues before an ATS or recruiter screens you out.
Tailor your resume in minutes
Turn one core profile into targeted versions for each role family without rewriting from scratch.
Why it matters: Spend time on better applications, not endless formatting.
How this helps candidates
Instead of guessing what happens after you apply, you get a clear picture of how your profile is read and scored—plus a concrete plan to improve it.
- More interviews from the same effort. Focus applications on roles where you are a strong or near‑strong match instead of spraying and praying.
- Less time rewriting resumes. Keep one living profile and let CandidateMatch adapt it for each opportunity.
- A roadmap for where to grow. See which skills keep showing up across the roles you want so you can plan learning and projects with intent.
Example
A data analyst wants to move into a product analytics role. CandidateMatch scores them against a typical product analytics profile and shows they are strong on SQL and experimentation, but light on stakeholder communication and roadmap influence examples.
They use our prompts to rewrite experience bullets with clearer outcomes and add one small side project to close the gap. Their score moves from “medium” to “strong”, and they start getting interviews for the roles they actually want.
What recruiters can do
CandidateMatch gives your team a shared, evidence‑based view of each candidate, instead of one‑off notes and keyword searches.
Built to layer on top of your existing ATS and workflows.
Define structured role profiles
Capture the skills, scope, and level you actually need in a reusable rubric candidates are scored against.
Rank by evidence, not noise
See candidates ordered by how well their real experience supports your requirements—beyond exact keyword matches.
Show your work
Drill into why someone is a strong or weak match and keep an audit trail you can share with hiring managers.
How this helps recruiters
Whether you run an in‑house team or an agency desk, CandidateMatch reduces manual sift time and makes hiring conversations more objective.
- Faster, higher‑signal shortlists. Move from hundreds of resumes to a prioritized stack of candidates in minutes.
- Better alignment with hiring managers. Review candidates against a clear rubric instead of subjective impressions.
- More consistent, fair screening. Apply the same criteria across every applicant, with explanations you can stand behind.
For teams
Use CandidateMatch alongside your existing ATS to standardize what “good” looks like across similar roles and locations, then have your sourcers and coordinators work from the same, explained scores.
Over time, feedback from hires and rejections feeds back into the profiles you use, so every search gets a little sharper.
Why CandidateMatch is different
Underneath the simple interface is an engine that was built to understand role families, evidence, and explainability—not just keywords on a page.
Evidence‑first scoring
We look for concrete achievements, projects, and responsibilities that support each requirement and surface those back to candidates and recruiters.
Role‑family aware
Our rubrics understand that “data analyst”, “product analyst”, and “analytics engineer” overlap—so we can help you move within a family of roles, not start from zero each time.
Shared explanations
The same explanation a candidate sees is what a recruiter sees, which keeps expectations aligned on both sides of the hiring process.
Built with both sides in mind
CandidateMatch is designed for serious candidates and recruiting teams who care about clarity, fairness, and better decisions—not hacks or one‑off templates.
Questions you might have
A quick overview for both candidates and recruiters. If you are unsure whether CandidateMatch fits your situation, start with your resume—it's the fastest way to see.
Does CandidateMatch replace my recruiter or ATS?
No. For candidates, it helps you present yourself more clearly to any recruiter or ATS. For teams, it sits alongside your existing tools to improve how you screen and discuss candidates.
Can this help if I'm changing careers?
Yes. Because we work with role families and evidence, we can highlight transferable skills and show you what examples you are missing for the roles you want to grow into.
Is my data safe?
We only use your data to power your experience in CandidateMatch. You stay in control of your account, and you can remove your information at any time. See our Privacy Policy for details.
Do recruiters see everything I do as a candidate?
No. Recruiters see structured profiles and scores when you choose to share or apply. The private recommendations and drafts you work on as a candidate are for you.
How long does it take to get value?
Most candidates see useful insights within a few minutes of connecting their resume and picking a role. Recruiters typically see value on their very first shortlist.
What does onboarding look like for teams?
We help you define or import a few core role profiles, then calibrate scores on a handful of candidates. From there, your team can reuse and refine those profiles across searches.
One profile. Clearer signals. Better decisions.
Start by seeing how a modern hiring system reads your resume, then use those insights to improve every application that comes after.
