0 – 100

that's the scale of TESTmyATS's ATS Score

An objective measure of how well your CV matches the offer

What is TESTmyATS's ATS Score?

The ATS Score is a rating from 0 to 100 that measures how well your CV is adapted to a specific job offer. It simulates what a real ATS system would do by comparing your document to the job description.

Why it matters

A score of 90 doesn't guarantee an interview — it guarantees that a human recruiter will see your CV. That's already a major win in a market where hundreds of applicants compete for every job.

How is it calculated?

The score takes four main dimensions into account, each weighted according to its real importance in market ATS systems.

40%

Keyword matching

Are the offer's terms present in your CV? Skills, tools, certifications, job titles.

25%

Semantic relevance

Even without exact matches, does your experience speak to the same domain?

20%

CV structure

Is the document well-formatted? Clearly identified sections, extractable text.

15%

Profile completeness

Are the essentials there: contact info, dates, education, skills?

What the score doesn't measure

The writing quality of your bullet points
The coherence and trajectory of your career
Your cultural fit with the company
Your soft skills and human qualities

What this means

A perfect score with a mismatched profile won't lead anywhere. The ATS score is necessary, not sufficient. Your real added value is what counts once past the filter.

How to improve your score?

TESTmyATS gives you a detailed report after each analysis: missing keywords, per-criterion score, and prioritized recommendations. Apply them to your CV to climb the ranking.

Missing keywords present in the offer but absent from your CV.
Underdeveloped sections to enrich for better completeness.
Reformulation suggestions to align your vocabulary with the offer.

What score should you aim for?

0 – 40

High risk

Your CV is poorly adapted. Automatic rejection likely.

40 – 65

Improvable

A recruiter may see you, but you're not in the top.

65 – 80

Good score

You'll pass the filter in most ATS systems.

80+

Excellent

Your CV is very well aligned with the offer.

Summary
