ResumeGrade

For universities, placement officers, and leadership

Identify At-Risk Students Before Placement Season

See exactly which students are placement-ready and close gaps before recruiters see them—one batch-wide view for leadership and advisors.

Used by early partner institutions for the 2026 placement cycle. Limited pilot spots.

Batch analytics and at-a-glance readiness—so you see risk before drive week.

It's all about speed

Pilot placement teams use ResumeGrade to standardise drafts, run JD alignment, and surface 0 to 100 readiness before students flood the market, so shortlisting odds stop being a guessing game.

Amazing people to work with. Very fast and professional partner.

Why capable students still don't get shortlisted

Placement teams are forced to rely on guesswork instead of measurable standards.

Placement teams spend hours reviewing resumes that never get shortlisted.

ATS & Screening

Most resumes fail ATS filters before reaching recruiters

Role Fit

Students apply with generic resumes instead of role-specific ones

Consistency

No standard: resume quality varies wildly across students

Scale

Placement teams can't review 1000+ resumes manually

Standardise → Align → Prove Readiness

One placement system, not a grab bag of features. Standardise quality, align to each role, then prove readiness with scores before students hit “apply.”

01

Standardise resume quality across all students

Shared structure, templates, and feedback loops, so every file meets the same bar and you can compare batches fairly.

02

Align resumes to job roles before applying

Match each resume to the JD and surface gaps early so students send role specific files, not one generic document.

03

Prove readiness with measurable 0 to 100 scores

Transparent rubric, line level feedback, and an action list, so screening and skimmability expectations are met before submission.

See the difference structure makes

The same candidate can look unfocused and hard to parse, or clear, scannable, and aligned with what recruiters and ATS tools expect. Slide across to compare a weak layout with a strong one.

This is what your students submit today vs after using ResumeGrade.

Built on Proven Resume Standards, Not Guesswork

Unlike generic tools, scoring is grounded in widely used career services guidelines (Harvard Career Services principles), combined with structured checks that mirror how employers skim and filter, so outcomes are comparable batch to batch.

The rubric

Career services structure, not a black box

Students and advisors see how the score breaks down, so feedback feels fair, teachable, and repeatable across a batch.

Structured feedback

Concrete line level notes, not vague “AI says improve this.”

Recruiter realistic bar

Concise, skimmable, impact led, aligned with how employers read.

Integrity guardrails

Rewrites never invent achievements; they only rephrase what’s there.
