What the CV scan checks

YAGO reviews structure, clarity, ATS compatibility and recruiter-facing signals, then puts the most important fixes first. In practice it looks at four things.

  • Results, not duties

    Whether your bullets say what changed because of your work (numbers, scope, outcomes) or only list what you were responsible for.

  • A specific summary

    Whether your summary says something concrete about you, or could describe almost any candidate.

  • ATS readability

    Whether headings, layout and wording are simple enough for applicant tracking software to read.

  • Fit with your field

    How well your skills, tools and experience match your industry, and the target role if you add one.

What a result looks like

A short, made-up example of the format. It is not a real person's result.

Example, not a customer result
Score
Your CV scores 62/100. ATS 70 · Industry fit 58.
What works
Names a concrete result: “Cut the average sales cycle from 45 to 38 days.”
What to fix
The summary has no numbers, and three of the four bullets under the latest role describe duties, not results.
Suggested edit

Before: Experienced professional with a passion for customer service.

After: Customer support lead with 6 years of experience, managing a team of 8 on Zendesk.

Rewrites only use facts that are already in your CV.

Question
When a detail is missing, YAGO asks instead of guessing: “How many people were on the team, and what improved while you led it?”

What the score means

The score is an AI assessment from 0 to 100 of how clearly your CV shows results, how easily software can read it, and how well it fits your field. Use it to decide what to fix first.

The scoring guide caps the score when the summary has no concrete number, when most bullets open with weak phrases such as “Responsible for”, or when long paragraphs replace bullets.

It does not predict whether you will get an interview, and it is not a test run through an employer's tracking system. Employers use different systems, and YAGO cannot see how any of them scores a CV.

Questions about the CV scan

Is the CV scan really free?

Your first CV scan is free, and you do not need an account or a card for it. More scans, and downloading a CV from the builder, are part of Pro (€19 a month).

Does a high score mean I will pass an ATS?

No. The score is an AI assessment of your CV, not a test run through an employer's software. A higher score means fewer of the common problems, not a guarantee of an interview or of passing any particular system.

Can I scan a Word document?

The scan takes PDF files only. Export your Word document as a PDF and upload that. The CV Builder can open PDF and Word files if you want to edit one there.

Do I need to paste a job description?

No. The scan does not use a job description. You can add a target role, which is optional, to focus the feedback on that kind of job.

Will YAGO make up achievements for my CV?

No. Suggested rewrites only use facts that are already in your CV. If a number or detail is missing, YAGO asks you a question instead of guessing.
