Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an ATS score and why does it matter?

An ATS (Applicant Tracking System) score is a numerical rating given to your resume based on how well it matches a job description. Most companies use ATS to automatically filter out resumes with low scores before a human ever reads them. A score above 80% gives you the best chance of being shortlisted.

How do I check my ATS score for free?

Use careerstart.in's free ATS Score Checker. Upload your resume (PDF or DOCX) and paste the job description. You will get your score, keyword gaps, format issues, and improvement suggestions in under 60 seconds. No signup required.

What is a good ATS score for Indian companies?

For Indian MNCs and top startups (Infosys, Wipro, Zomato, Flipkart, etc.), aim for 80%+ on ATS. For FAANG India offices, 85%+ is ideal. Scores below 60% are typically auto-rejected by most ATS systems.

Does careerstart.in work for freshers and students?

Yes, absolutely. careerstart.in is especially useful for freshers and final-year students preparing for campus placements. Our ATS checker, resume builder, and mock interview tool are all designed to help entry-level candidates compete effectively.

Can I use AI to build a resume for specific companies?

Yes. careerstart.in's AI Resume Builder lets you input the job description from any company and generates a resume tailored to that role's specific keyword patterns and requirements. This dramatically increases your ATS score for that application.

How is careerstart.in different from other resume tools?

Most resume tools focus on design. careerstart.in focuses on outcomes -- getting you past ATS filters and into interviews. We combine ATS scoring, AI resume building, mock interviews, and auto-apply in one platform, built specifically for the Indian job market.
