What does Get Shortlisted do differently from just running an analysis?

A standalone analysis (10 credits) only scores your resume and tells you what's wrong. Get Shortlisted runs that same analysis and then immediately rewrites your resume to fix what it found — one submission, one download, for 40 credits total (the 10-credit analysis plus the 30-credit rewrite, bundled).

How long does it take?

Typically under a minute. The analysis and rewrite run back-to-back on our servers as soon as you submit — you don't need to click through separate steps.

What resume file formats are supported?

PDF and DOCX, up to 5MB. We recommend a text-based (not scanned/image) resume so both the analysis and the rewrite can read your content accurately.

Do I need an account?

You can start filling out the job description and resume without signing in. You'll be asked to sign in (or create a free account — 20 credits, no card required) right before we run the analysis and rewrite, since that's the point credits get used.

What if I don't have enough credits?

Get Shortlisted costs 40 credits. If your balance is short, you can buy a credit pack right on this page without losing your job description or losing your place — no need to leave and come back.

Will the rewrite invent experience I don't have?

No. The AI rewrite engine operates under a strict no-fabrication rule — it repositions and rephrases your existing experience to match the job description, it never invents employers, titles, dates, or accomplishments.

How is this different from pasting my resume into ChatGPT?

A general chatbot doesn't score your resume against ATS criteria first, has no guardrail against inventing details, and hands you raw text you still have to format. Get Shortlisted scores your resume against the actual job description, targets a specific ATS score, enforces a no-fabrication rule, and gives you back a formatted DOCX ready to submit.

What if my resume doesn't hit 80+ after the rewrite?

80+ is the target the rewrite is built toward based on the job description you provide — most rewrites land there because the engine works from your existing analysis results. You can view the full breakdown after the rewrite to see exactly where the score landed and why.

Will an ATS or recruiter flag my resume as AI-written?

No — the rewrite only repositions and rephrases your own real experience; it doesn't insert AI-generated claims, invented metrics, or robotic boilerplate phrasing. It reads as a stronger version of your resume, not a generated one.

Does this work if I'm changing careers or applying outside my current field?

Yes, with one honest caveat: since the rewrite never invents skills or experience you don't have, it can reposition and reframe what's already on your resume to match the target role, but it can't manufacture qualifications you're missing. The bigger the gap between your background and the job, the more the score improvement depends on what's genuinely transferable in your existing experience.

Most resumes never make it past the first filter

Before a recruiter ever opens your resume, an ATS scans it against the job description and ranks it. If the keywords, skills, and phrasing don't line up with that specific posting, you're filtered out — regardless of whether you're qualified. Generic resumes lose to tailored ones every time, and manually rewriting your resume for every job you apply to isn't realistic when you're job hunting.

Get Shortlisted does the tailoring for you — for this job, right now.

How it works

Step 1

Paste the job, upload your resume

Drop in the job description you're applying to and your current resume (PDF or DOCX). No account needed to start.

Step 2

We score it, then fix it

Your resume is scored against that exact job description — missing keywords, weak matches, formatting issues — and every one of those gaps is fed straight into the rewrite.

Step 3

Download a resume built for this job

Get back a rewritten, recruiter-ready DOCX targeting an 80+ ATS match score for that specific role.

One submission, a resume built to be seen

This isn't a generic polish pass. Every rewrite is generated against the job description you provide — the keywords it's missing, the skills it under-sells, the phrasing that doesn't match how the posting is written.

Why this beats tailoring it yourself

You have three options when a job posting doesn't quite match your resume: submit it as-is, spend an hour manually rewriting it, or paste both into a generic AI chatbot and hope it doesn't invent something. Get Shortlisted is built to do only the second option — properly, and fast.

	Submit as-is	Manual rewrite	Generic AI chatbot	Get Shortlisted
Matched to this exact JD	✗	✓ (if you have time)	Sometimes	✓
Scored against ATS criteria	✗	✗	✗	✓
No fabricated experience, guaranteed	—	✓	✗	✓
Time required	0 min	30–60+ min	10–15 min, plus editing	Under 1 min
Delivered as ready-to-send DOCX	—	You format it	You format it	✓

It rewrites your resume. It doesn't reinvent your career.

The AI rewrite engine operates under a strict rule: it repositions and rephrases what's already in your resume to match the job description — it never invents employers, job titles, dates, degrees, or accomplishments, and it never adds metrics that weren't already there. What comes back is a better-presented version of your real experience, not a fabricated one.

That's also why you can send it under your own name with confidence — every claim in it traces back to something you actually put on your original resume.

40 credits — analysis and rewrite, bundled

A standalone analysis costs 10 credits and a standalone AI rewrite costs 30 credits. Get Shortlisted runs both back-to-back for 40 credits total — one submission, one download. Every new account starts with 20 free credits.
