Resume and job-search guides.
Plain guides for job seekers, written by the team building QWIKIT Jobs. They work with any resume and a spreadsheet, and none of them needs our software.
The guides.
How to format a resume so parsing keeps your work history
One column, plain headings, real text and consistent dates, and a two-minute test you can run on your own resume.
How to tailor a resume to a job description truthfully
Sort the posting, match each requirement to real evidence, use its words where they're true, and leave out what isn't.
A simple job application and follow-up tracking system
One sheet, one row per application: what to record, when to follow up, and a weekly 15-minute review.
A free tool to go with them.
Paste your resume and a job posting into the free resume keyword checker to see which of the posting's key terms your resume shows. It runs in your browser, and nothing you paste is sent or saved.
What if you didn't have to do this by hand anymore?
QWIKIT Jobs is the tool we're building for that. It will estimate how ready your resume is for each job, help you tailor it truthfully using only what you've really done, and keep track of what you've sent. It never applies for you. It isn't built yet. Join the waitlist and we'll tell you when it opens.
