Find out what's killing your resume.
A senior recruiter reads your resume line by line and sends back a no-fluff document with every issue, every fix, and every keyword you're missing. Delivered in 3 business days.
What we check
Six things we check
on every single resume.
No vibes-based feedback. Every recommendation is tied to a specific line, with a specific fix.
ATS scannability
We run your resume through real ATS parsers (Workday, Greenhouse, Lever, Taleo) and tell you exactly which sections are getting mangled.
Achievement focus
Every bullet is checked against the "so what?" test. Vague responsibilities get rewritten as quantified outcomes.
Keyword density
We compare your resume to the job descriptions you're targeting and flag every missing keyword that recruiters actually search for.
Structure & flow
Section order, role hierarchy, education placement — small structural changes that nudge a recruiter from "meh" to "interesting."
Voice & wording
Cliché killers ("results-driven", "team player"), passive voice, weak verbs — flagged with specific replacements.
Length & density
One page or two? Too dense, too sparse? You get a verdict and exact instructions to hit the right balance.
What you get back
A document, not a vibe.
Every review is delivered as a structured PDF you can act on in an afternoon.
Section 3: Experience — Acme Corp
"Responsible for managing a team."
Fix: Replace with: "Led a team of 7 engineers across 3 products, shipping 12 features in 18 months."
"Worked with stakeholders to deliver projects."
Fix: Add specifics: how many stakeholders, which department, what business outcome did the project drive?
"Reduced infrastructure costs by 32% over 6 months."
Fix: Strong — keep this exact structure. Move to the top of the bullet list.

What clients say
The fixes that turned things around.
"I'd applied to 80 jobs with zero callbacks. After ZapResume's review, I changed 6 things in an afternoon — interviews started showing up within a week."
"I wish I hadn't wasted a month tweaking my own CV. They pointed out things I genuinely couldn't see — like that I'd buried my best work on page two."
"The ATS keyword analysis alone was worth it. I had no idea recruiters were searching for half those terms in my industry."
FAQ
Common questions.
What's the difference between Review and Writing?
Review tells you what to fix. Writing fixes it for you. If you like your resume's voice and structure but want to know what's broken, get a review. If you want a recruiter to rewrite the whole thing from scratch, get the writing service.
Can the review be done in 48 hours?
Yes — we offer rush delivery as an add-on. Default turnaround is 3 business days; rush brings it to 48 hours.
Will you write the suggested changes for me?
We give you the exact wording for every flagged line — copy-paste-ready. If you'd rather skip the editing entirely, the Writing service does that.
Do you review cover letters too?
Yes — every review package includes a quick pass on your cover letter if you submit one. Detailed cover letter rewrites are part of the Zap 2x package.
What if I disagree with a recommendation?
That's fine — these are recommendations, not commandments. The whole report is editable; you take what works and ignore what doesn't. We'll happily clarify any point over email if you want context on why we flagged it.
How is this different from free resume reviewers online?
Free reviewers run keyword matches and template checks. We have a senior recruiter actually read your resume the way they read resumes at work — and tell you what would make them stop scrolling.
