Ideally we'd all like to be sure that the resumes we submit to jobs are getting 'sorted in' by the ATS system instead of just setting ourselves up for the autoreply of 'Thanks but no thanks'. So why give the resume a dry run vs. the JD with a tool like this? And at $50 LTD, when many services charge half that for one month, why not?
I've used this a TON since I first purchased it so as to fully test its capabilities. I was hopeful this platform would be the only one I'd need, unfortunately it seems to be lacking in several areas and the process is far from smooth.
⏱ There are random delays. For example, there are blocking elements on many pages that need to load before you can do anything, from navigate to the various pages to uploading resumes.
🚫📄 While you can look at your previous saved scans, there's no ability to save just resumes in the system to compare. So you're constantly uploading a new resume for every scan, and waiting on all of those pages to upload, and to parse, etc.
📪 I've emailed Wes some thoughts on pretty basic ways to improve (he replied) so I'm hoping that some changes improve the experience are going to be pushed soon.
As of now, I'm giving it 3 tacos. I'm still gathering data to see if that reflects actual ATS scans. It should be lower (from a UI standpoint) but even with those frustrations, it's a value-add if the parsing is close to accurate.
