Overview

After reading a Linkedin Top Voice post, I got curious about her suggestion of using an AI tool to help revamping the resume. The website is called https://resumeworded.com/.
The website offers three main services:

• Resume check - It analyzes the CV and produces a score and recommendations about it
• LinkedIn profile check - Same as the resume, but with the LinkedIn profile
• Resume targeting - Given a job description, it tells how far the resume is from it

This post is about my experience with it.
