Keyword Tailoring: What to Change vs. Keep
Don’t rewrite your resume from scratch. Tailor the 20% that matters.
Keep (80%)
- Your core accomplishments and metrics
- Your best 2–3 “signature” projects
- Your stable skills inventory
Tailor (20%)
- Headline + summary (align to the role)
- Skills order (move relevant skills up)
- Top 2 experience bullets (rewrite in the job’s language)
This is exactly what our AI Scan is designed to output—so you can move fast without losing authenticity.
