Everything you need to know about Tailor My Resume

Tailor My Resume is your career intelligence platform—a permanent home for your resume. Our free tools let you easily keep your resume up-to-date and accessible whenever you need it. When you're actively job searching and need that extra edge, our usage-based features help you customize your resume and professional communications for specific opportunities while maintaining factual accuracy.

Your career intelligence platform includes a complete resume building suite at no cost: manage your work experience with achievements, organize technical and soft skills, track education and certifications, and use professional templates. You can also import existing resumes (PDF or Word) for automatic data extraction. This is your permanent home for maintaining and accessing your resume.

When you need to add extra edge to your job search, you can access two powerful features on a pay-as-you-go basis: (1) One-click resume tailoring that automatically customizes your resume for specific job postings with ATS optimization, and (2) Context menu tailoring that lets you highlight any text (job posts, emails, LinkedIn comments) and generate tailored responses using your verified profile data. Both work through our Chrome extension on 50+ job platforms.

Install our Chrome extension, then visit any supported job platform (LinkedIn, Indeed, Glassdoor, Workday, etc.). Click "Tailor My Resume" when viewing a job posting, or right-click any text to generate a tailored response. The extension works on 50+ platforms including major job boards and ATS systems.

Click "Add to Chrome" and the extension will appear in your browser toolbar. Find it here.

Most users save 30-60 minutes per job application by automating the resume tailoring process while maintaining quality and accuracy.

Our ATS optimization and keyword matching help ensure your resume gets past automated screening systems. By making it easier to customize each application, you can apply to more positions with tailored materials, which typically increases interview rates.

No. We never fabricate credentials, titles, or outcomes. All tailored content is verified against your provided data. Everything we generate must be factually accurate and verifiable—we help you present your real experience more effectively, not invent false qualifications.

We use usage-based billing—you only pay when you use our advanced tailoring features during active job searches. Your career intelligence platform (resume building, profile management, and storage) remains completely free, so you can keep your resume up-to-date without any ongoing costs.

The extension works on 50+ platforms including major job boards (LinkedIn, Indeed, Glassdoor, Monster) and ATS systems (Workday, Lever, Greenhouse, SmartRecruiters).

Yes! The context menu tailoring works with any text on the web. Use it to craft responses to LinkedIn comments, draft professional emails, write cover letters, or respond to any professional communication—all using your verified profile data.

The context menu feature lets you right-click any selected text on the web to generate tailored responses using your profile data. After highlighting text (like a recruiter message, job question, or LinkedIn post), right-click and choose "Tailor With Your Profile," then select the type of response you need: Question Response, Reply to Recruiter, Social Media Comment, Thank You Message, or Why Would I Be a Good Fit. The extension will generate a personalized response based on your verified experience.

You need to add a payment method to use the tailoring features (resume tailoring and context menu responses) as they are usage-based paid features. However, you can install the extension and log in to verify it's working. The free resume building tools on the main platform are always available without payment.
