    What it does · who it's for

    Honest feedback, the kind that's actually useful.

    The Résumé Roast reads your text the way a tired recruiter skims it at 4pm — and tells you the truth with a smile. It's for job seekers who suspect their résumé is "fine" and want to know where it's quietly costing them interviews: new grads, career changers, and seasoned pros whose bullets have gone stale. Every jab comes with a fix you can paste straight in.

    How it works

    Four steps to a sharper résumé.

    Paste it in

    Drop in your whole résumé or just the experience bullets you're unsure about. It stays in your browser — nothing is uploaded.

    Pick your heat

    Gentle, honest, or extra spicy. The fixes stay the same — only the delivery changes. (We never punch down at you, only at lazy résumé habits.)

    Read the roast

    Get a roast score, the clichés and weak verbs we caught, the lines missing real numbers, and specific rewrites for each one.

    Fix & share

    Copy your fixes, make the changes, and share your roast card if you're feeling bold. Then let a strategist take it the rest of the way.

    Free vs. Pro

    What's free here — and what a real person does.

    FAQ

    Quick questions, honest answers.

    It reads the text you paste and returns honest, a-little-funny, genuinely useful feedback: a roast score out of 100, the lines that made it wince, the clichés and weak verbs it caught, missing metrics, and specific rewrites you can use. It runs entirely in your browser — nothing is uploaded.

    Yes. The roast is free, needs no account, and runs locally in your browser. You can copy your fixes and share a roast card with no sign-up. The deeper, done-for-you work — a strategist rewriting and submitting your résumé for each role — is part of Marqee's paid plans.

    No. It's honest and a little playful — the brutal truth delivered with a wink — but every jab comes with a real, constructive fix. We punch up at lazy résumé habits, never at you. The goal is a résumé that gets you seen, not a put-down.

    No. Everything happens locally in your browser, in memory, and is gone when you close the tab. We don't store, send, or train on your text. Paste freely.

    A sharper résumé helps you clear the screen, but the job is won by being seen by the people who hire. Start a free 48-hour trial and a Marqee strategist tailors your résumé for each role, runs recruiter outreach, and finds referrals — so your fixed-up résumé actually lands in front of a human.

    The free taste → the real thing

    A roast points at the problems. A strategist fixes them — and gets you seen.

    The roast is the wake-up call. The trial is the plan: a dedicated Career Concierge rewriting your résumé for each role, running recruiter outreach, and finding referrals — so you stop applying into the void and start interviewing.
