How ATS keyword matching works
Applicant tracking systems rank applications by how well they match the job description. Paste the job ad and the generator finds the role keywords it contains — plus any terms it repeats — weaves them into your text and shows which are covered. Click a missing keyword to add it, but only if you genuinely have that skill.
Example
Dear Hiring Manager, I am applying for the Project Coordinator position at Northwind. With 5 years of experience in project management, communication and problem solving, I have a track record of delivering measurable results — most recently, I led a cross-team project that cut turnaround time by 30%. My toolkit includes collaboration, stakeholder management, time management and data-driven. What draws me to Northwind is your team’s mission and the challenges ahead. I would bring the same focus on quality, ownership and collaboration to your team from day one. I would welcome the chance to discuss how my experience can support Northwind's goals. Thank you for your time and consideration. Sincerely, Alex Morgan
Tips for a cover letter that gets replies
- Keep it to one page and use the exact job title from the posting.
- Quantify one achievement — numbers stand out to recruiters and to ATS parsers.
- Send plain text (no tables or columns) so ATS software can read it.
- Proofread names and company spelling — it is the most common mistake.
