Tailored Resumes that get more interviews

A tailored resume is a customized version of your resume that's specifically adapted to match the unique needs and requirements of a specific job opportunity.

At Dartassist, we believe your resume should be treated as a marketing document specific for a job, not just a static history of your work experience. Think of a tailored resume as your personal advertisement in the competitive job market!

Recruiters spend an average of just 7.4 seconds going over a resume (according to a 2018 study by Ladders, Inc.) so making an immediate impact matters to get your foot in the door. The goal of a tailored resume is to quickly convey your fit for the specific position. Since even jobs with identical titles can have significant differences in responsibilities and requirements, it makes sense to present yourself in a way that directly aligns with what the employer is seeking.

Contrary to popular belief, tailoring isn't just about getting past Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS). While 99% of Fortune 500 companies do use ATS software, human reviewers like recruiters and hiring managers benefit equally from a well-tailored resume. They need to quickly assess your relevance, and a tailored resume facilitates this process. By creating a targeted resume that's optimized for a specific job posting, you're essentially doing the mental matching work for the reviewer.

If you are not convinced, Research from MIT Sloan also suggests that using algorithmic assistance to create resumes improves your chances of landing a job offer by upto 7.8%. Another jobseeker presented us with results of his personal experiment on tailoring resumes which showed that his interview rates improved by 50% by spending the time to tailor his resume, so this definitely seems like something worth trying out.

Here's how we help you build a perfectly tailored resume every time:

Understanding Your Match
First things first - we analyze your profile against the job description using our Dartassist Match Score. This gives you a clear picture of where you stand before you even start customizing. This is the first step when tailoring the resume to a job description.

Automated Content Ranker
‍Based on your match score, Dartassist automatically selects the most relevant content from your profile to showcase on your tailored resume. No more guessing which projects or experiences to highlight because our algorithm prioritizes the experiences that best match what the hiring manager is looking for.

Professional Summary Generation
Writer's block when it comes to your professional summary? We've got you covered. Dartassist generates a concise, targeted summary that positions you perfectly for the role you're applying for. And don't worry - it won't sound like AI wrote it (although technically, it did!).

Skills Picker
Some roles require specialized skills and recruiters often search the resumes they get by skill names. We ensure that the most relevant skill stacks for the role go into the final resume automatically so you don't have to worry about either skipping a skill or spamming your own resume with a huge list of skills.

Targeted Bullet Point Creation
Notice some gaps between your experience and the job requirements? Our system helps you create targeted bullet points that address these specific areas, ensuring you present yourself as the complete package. This feature alone has helped users increase their interview rates by 27% in our internal studies.

Full Control Over Final Output
Of course, you know yourself best. That's why Dartassist always gives you full editing capabilities and manual overrides on both content and design. Think of us as your smart assistant - we do the heavy lifting, but you're always in the driver's seat when it comes to your professional presentation.

While using a purpose-built tool like Dartassist can definitely save a lot of time and effort, tailoring resumes manually is also possible if you are willing to spare additional time and effort. Here is a short guide to tailor your resume manually.

If you are worried about costs, don't worry - Dartassist is free to use for upto 3 resumes a month and we also have a Free Credits program if the free monthly credits are not sufficient
