Is this just another ATS checker?

No. ApplyOrSkip isn't about chasing a score. It helps you decide whether a role is worth your time — including whether it's worth 15–30 minutes of tailoring first.

What does the free version include?

The free version gives you the core verdict — apply, tailor first, or skip — plus your main strengths and the gaps that actually matter.

Pro gives you unlimited analyses and, for every role worth pursuing, a Tailor Pack — exact resume rewrites, must-hit keywords, and full interview prep, all specific to that role.

Why does it sometimes say skip?

Not every gap is worth patching with a rewrite. If the role isn't a real fit, the honest answer isn't 'revise your resume' — it's 'move on to a better-fit role.'

Do I need to upload a resume file?

Not necessarily. You can paste your resume text or LinkedIn summary directly — no formatting needed.

What happens to my resume?

Your resume content is used to generate your analysis — it's never sold or shared. Saved roles and resumes stay in your account and can be deleted anytime. See our privacy policy for the full details.

Can I save my results?

Yes. After each analysis, tap Save to add it to your history — easy to look back and compare what you applied to, tailored, or skipped. Saved roles appear in your Application Hub, where you can track status, notes, and follow-ups.

What this role is looking for

They want someone who can drive growth, work cross-functionally, and make data-led decisions. Fix these two points and this becomes much closer to a clear yes.

01 · Targeted rewrites

Original

Responsible for paid social and search campaigns — tracked metrics and reported performance to stakeholders each week

Suggested

Owned $1.2M paid budget across Meta, Google, and LinkedIn — cut blended CAC by 34% in 6 months by reallocating spend toward high-LTV cohorts, contributing to a 22-point improvement in 90-day retention

02 · Keywords

Full-funnel growth · CAC/LTV optimization · Paid social (Meta, Google, LinkedIn) · Lifecycle & retention · A/B experimentation · Attribution modeling · Cohort analysis · Growth loops

03 · Positioning summary

Growth marketer with four years across B2C and SaaS — paid, SEO, and lifecycle with full P&L visibility. Best fit for roles requiring end-to-end funnel ownership and clear revenue attribution. Particularly strong at connecting channel performance to business outcomes, which is the core ask of this role. Note: your experimentation ownership is undersold in your current resume — worth surfacing explicitly before applying.

04 · 30-second pitch

"I'm a growth marketer with four years in B2C and SaaS — most recently scaling paid acquisition from $200K to $1.4M in annual spend while cutting blended CAC by a third. I've owned the full funnel: paid, SEO, lifecycle, and retention. My clearest edge is in attribution — building the models that actually connect channel spend to revenue, not just clicks. I know this role is centred on exactly that, and it's where I do my best work."

Built for real job decisions

The most useful part was knowing whether the job was worth my time. The gap explanations were specific — they told me exactly what to address. Overall, it helped me narrow down which jobs were worth considering.

It gave me a clear answer quickly, which was useful. Reading it gave me a much better sense of my strengths and where the gaps actually were. It helped me decide faster.

It made the next step obvious, which saved me time. The reasoning behind the score was laid out plainly, so there was no guesswork. It made the decision process a lot easier.

It was direct and easy to follow. I'd use it again when deciding whether a job is worth moving forward on.

I liked it. It saved me time and helped me focus on jobs I actually had a strong shot at.
