Free Greenhouse ATS Resume Checker

Score your resume against how Greenhouse reads it — parsing, keywords, sections and formatting — in under 60 seconds. Free, no account.

Greenhouse is the system behind most startup and tech-company job boards — the clean, single-page application form with a drag-and-drop resume field. It is deliberately light on automation: Greenhouse does not score or filter candidates on its own.

What Greenhouse does differently

Widespread in tech and high-growth companies — the job boards at Airbnb, Stripe-scale startups and thousands of smaller firms are Greenhouse-hosted.

  • Greenhouse does not auto-reject, auto-score or rank applicants. Its own documentation is explicit that resumes are read by people; the software organises them.
  • It does parse your resume for search, so a recruiter looking for a skill will only find you if that skill is extractable text.
  • Because a human reads it, readability counts for more here than in enterprise systems — but it must still be selectable text, not a scanned image.
  • The application form's own fields (LinkedIn URL, portfolio, work authorisation) are frequently used as filters. Filling them in matters as much as the resume.
  • Custom questions attached to the posting are often the real screen. Answer them specifically rather than pointing at the resume.

The honest version

No tool, including this one, can see inside Greenhouse Software's software or predict a specific employer's configuration. What a checker can do — and what this one does — is read your resume the way any parser must, and tell you what it could not extract. That is where nearly every avoidable rejection comes from.

Greenhouse questions, answered

No. Greenhouse does not score or auto-reject applications. Recruiters review candidates themselves; the system stores, organises and makes them searchable.

Better than in enterprise systems, because a person usually sees it — but keep it selectable text in a single column so the parser can still index your skills for recruiter searches.

Yes, for a different reason: recruiters search the candidate pool by keyword. Keywords get you found rather than getting you past a filter.
