Frequently Asked Questions

Most mid-size and large companies use applicant tracking systems (ATS) and recruiter tools that rank and filter resumes based on skills, credentials, formatting, and keywords before a person reads them. If your resume doesn't speak the role's language or breaks parsing conventions, it ranks low — no matter how strong your experience is. Kareeo's free diagnosis checks your resume the way these systems do, shows you what they see, and hands you your top fixes before you apply.

Upload your resume (PDF or DOCX) and three lenses — recruiter, ATS, and career coach — review it together. In under a minute you get a scored report: where your resume stands, the issues holding it back, and your top fixes with what each one is worth. No account needed to run it. From there you can create a free account to save the report and put the fixes to work.

A route is a job search with structure. Instead of sending the same resume everywhere and hoping, you work a sequence: diagnose where you stand, pick target roles that actually fit, tailor your resume to each job, and track every application through one pipeline so each week has a plan. Kareeo is built around that sequence — the free diagnosis is step one.

A free career assessment built on the Holland (RIASEC) framework. It maps your interests and working style to real roles, so if you're early in your career — or resetting it — your search starts with a target instead of a guess. No account required, and your results connect directly to the rest of your route.

Yes. The job-search diagnosis and the career quiz are free with no account. A free account adds unlimited job tracking, your work profile, and 30 free credits once you verify your email — enough to analyze jobs against your resume and generate tailored resumes and cover letters. Kareeo Pro adds a larger monthly credit allowance for working your full route every week.

Most resume tools stop at keyword matching — they tell you what's missing and leave the rest to you. Kareeo is built around the whole route: a scored diagnosis of your resume, job-by-job match analysis with a gap breakdown, tailored resumes and cover letters written from your real experience, an interview prep playbook for each job, and a tracker that holds the pipeline together. It's the difference between a spell-checker and a system.

Yes. For each job you track, Kareeo builds an interview prep playbook from the job description itself: the questions to expect, talking points that map your experience to the role's requirements, and the gaps you should be ready to address. It's preparation grounded in that specific job — not generic interview tips.

Your privacy is our top priority. All resume data is encrypted in transit and at rest. We use Supabase with Row-Level Security (RLS) policies, meaning only you can access your data. We never sell your personal information to third parties, and we include PII redaction in our AI processing pipeline. You can delete your account and all associated data at any time from your Settings page.

Yes. Kareeo is designed for job seekers across all industries — from tech and finance to healthcare and education — and at every career level. It's built especially for two situations: starting your career and needing direction, and resetting your career after years in one lane. Our AI models adapt to industry-specific terminology and calibrate to your seniority, so the analysis fits your situation instead of a generic template.

The Job Tracker gives you a visual pipeline of every application, from saved through applied, interviewing, and offer. Add jobs from a posting URL or manually, move them through each stage, and see an AI match score with a gap breakdown for every job. No more spreadsheets, no more lost applications — and no more guessing which week actually moved you forward.
