Paste your résumé and the job post. In seconds you'll see a match score, the keywords and skills you already have, and exactly which ones you're missing — so you walk in covered, not guessing.
Every job description is a checklist in disguise. The matcher reads the post the way screening software does — pulling out the skills and keywords that matter — then shows you what your résumé already covers and what it's missing. It's for anyone tailoring an application: new grads sizing up a stretch role, professionals deciding if a posting is worth the time, and career changers checking how far the bridge really is.
Paste both sides and hit Match my résumé. You'll get a match score, the keywords you already have, and the ones to add.
That's the free taste. Knowing the gap is step one — closing it on every application is the work. A Marqee strategist tailors your résumé to each posting and runs the outreach to get it seen.

The matcher shows you what's missing for one posting. A Marqee strategist tailors your résumé to every role, opens the side door with recruiter outreach and warm referrals, and submits each application for you. You stop applying and start interviewing.
Drop your résumé in one box and the full job post in the other. The whole description works best — requirements, responsibilities, and the "nice to haves" all carry signal.
The matcher extracts the meaningful skills and keywords from the job description and weights the ones that read as required, then checks your résumé against every one — all in your browser.
You get a match score out of 100, the terms you already cover, and the ones you're missing — so you can honestly decide what to add before you hit submit.
Entirely in your browser, using transparent, illustrative heuristics. The tool extracts the meaningful keywords and skills from the job post, weights the ones that appear most often or read as required, then checks how many your résumé already covers. That coverage becomes a match score out of 100. It's directional, not a guarantee — and nothing is uploaded or stored.
There's no magic cutoff, but most strong applications cover the majority of a posting's must-have keywords. The tool shows you exactly which terms you already match and which are missing, so you can decide what to add honestly rather than chasing a single number.
No. Keyword stuffing reads as spam to both screening software and recruiters. Only add terms that are genuinely true of your experience, and weave them into real accomplishments. The matcher points you to the gaps; you decide which are honest to close.
No. The tool runs locally in your browser. Your résumé and the job post are never uploaded, stored, or sent anywhere — refresh the page and the text is gone.
The match is the free taste. Start a free 48-hour trial and a dedicated Marqee strategist will tailor your résumé to each posting, run recruiter outreach, and submit your applications for you — so you stop applying and start interviewing.
