Resume Match
The /resume page lets you upload your resume, review the attributes our parser extracts, and turn the ones that matter to you into a saved search.
Using resume match elsewhere
On /market, /jobs, /companies, and /stacks the filter panel includes a Use resume match checkbox alongside the existing Remote only and Has equity toggles. It's off by default — checking it tells the page to overlay your parsed resume signals onto the current filter set.
The overlay is additive, not replacing: resume signals only fill dimensions you haven't already set yourself. If you've picked a tech stack, that selection wins; if you've left locations empty, the resume's locations fill in. Anything you explicitly cleared stays cleared.
If you haven't uploaded a resume, the checkbox is greyed out with a tooltip linking back to /resume.
Upload your resume
- Go to the /resume page
- Upload a PDF or DOCX (max 5 MB) or paste the raw text
- Wait a few seconds while our parser extracts roles, tech, locations, experience level, skills, and culture signals
Create a saved search from your attributes
Once your resume is parsed, click any pill to include that attribute in a saved search. When you're happy with the selection, click “Create saved search from selected” — the dialog lets you name the search, choose visibility, and optionally enable Job Alerts so you get an email when a new job matches.
Manage saved searches
All of your saved searches live on /saved-searches. See Saved Searches for the full story on alerts and newsletter delivery.
Your resume also tunes job board ranking
Uploading a resume doesn't just power saved searches — it also improves the order of results on the job board. This is a separate mechanism from the Use resume match checkbox above: it re-orders results automatically without changing which jobs are eligible.
- With a resume on file and the search bar empty, jobs whose content most closely matches your background rise to the top of the list automatically. Same filters, smarter order.
- When you type a search term, your query dominates and resume similarity blends in.
- There's no toggle for this. Uploading a resume enables it; removing your resume reverts to standard ranking.
See Job Board for details on how the two mechanisms differ.
Re-uploading your resume
You can upload a new resume at any time from the /resume page. Existing saved searches are kept — re-uploading just refreshes the attribute pills you can pick from.
