How Resume Autopsy Works
Resume Autopsy uses AI to perform a forensic analysis of your resume — the same kind of ruthless evaluation a recruiter does in six seconds, except we actually tell you what we found. Paste your resume text or upload a PDF, and our AI examiner dissects every section: structure, impact, keyword density, and ATS compatibility.

Your autopsy report includes a vital signs score from 0 to 100, a primary diagnosis summarizing the biggest problem, and itemized findings split into “Cause of Death” issues and “Signs of Life” strengths. The examiner’s verdict ties everything together with specific, actionable next steps.

Across resume analyses, certain patterns emerge. The most common cause of death is weak bullet points — listing responsibilities instead of measurable achievements. “Managed a team” tells a recruiter nothing. “Led a 12-person engineering team that shipped 3 products generating $2.4M ARR” gets interviews.

Applicant Tracking Systems organize and surface resumes for recruiters — if yours isn’t formatted for parsing, it may never get prioritized. Non-standard section headers, text embedded in images or tables, and missing keywords from the job description can all push your resume down the stack, even if you’re qualified.

Once you have your autopsy report, you have a clear roadmap. The cause-of-death findings tell you what to fix first, and the signs-of-life findings tell you what to protect. For candidates who want more, the Resurrection Protocol provides a complete AI-powered rewrite with before-and-after comparisons and ATS keyword optimization.

What does my resume score mean?
Your score reflects how likely your resume is to survive initial screening by recruiters and ATS systems. Scores below 40 indicate critical issues that are likely costing you interviews. Scores above 70 mean your resume has strong vital signs. The detailed findings explain exactly what’s driving your score.
