Skills drive most of the score
About 80% of the score checks whether must-have and nice-to-have skills from the job appear in your CV. Wording alignment makes up the rest.

Before You Apply
A resume match score estimates how closely your CV covers a specific job's skills and language. Hazana weights must-have skills heavily, checks nice-to-haves, and compares wording so you see what is missing, what already fits, and how much tailoring or confirmed skills would move the score.

Each gap is listed so you can confirm a real skill, add evidence to your CV, or decide the role is not a fit.
Tailoring shows before and after
When rewriting changes the score materially, you see before and after so you know tailoring helped.
Confirming skills moves the needle
Ticking a missing skill you truly have updates the score more than cosmetic rewording alone.
Frequently Asked Questions
Match score for one posting
How is the resume match score calculated?
Mostly from skill coverage (about 80%) plus how closely your phrasing matches the job (about 20%). It is specific to the job you paste, not a universal CV grade.
Is this an ATS score?
It is a Hazana fit score for one posting, not a prediction of any employer's ATS. Use it to prioritize applications and improve your CV for that role.
Can I improve the score without lying?
Yes. Tailor wording to surface existing proof, or confirm skills you already have but did not list clearly.
Does checking the score cost credits?
The score is part of a Resume Tailor run (1 credit on success). Interview answer practice stays free.
