Drag and Drop

Drag your CV file directly onto the upload area on the homepage. The drop zone will highlight when a file is hovering over it.

Click to Browse

Click the upload area to open your system file picker, then select your CV file.

File Requirements

  • Maximum file size: 1 MB
  • One file at a time: Upload a single CV per analysis
  • Text-based content: The CV must contain selectable text (scanned image PDFs are not supported)

Troubleshooting

File not accepted

Make sure your file is one of the supported formats (PDF, DOCX, or DOC) and is under 1 MB.

Analysis seems incomplete

If your CV is a scanned image PDF, the text cannot be extracted. Re-create your CV in a text-based format or use OCR software to convert it first.
