Using the Job Matcher

Review how your resume aligns with jobs you're interested in applying to.

Updated yesterday

The Job Matcher is available to both free and Teal+ users. Free users have a limited view of surfaced keywords, whereas Teal+ users see unlimited keywords! Want to learn more about the differences in these plans?
​Here's our breakdown!


Opening the Job Matcher

Open up a resume in Teal and look for the "Job Matcher" tab in your toolbar as shown below!


Selecting a Job

When you land on the Job Matcher (found in your Resume Builder toolbar), you'll have the option to select a job in three distinct ways:

  1. Find a job you've already bookmarked in your Job Tracker

    1. Just start typing and these jobs will appear in the dropdown!

  2. Search for a title or company in the search bar to find a job from our Job Board source

  3. Add a job description you already have manually

Have you used our Job Search Companion (Chrome Extension) to help bookmark jobs faster? Check out more on that in the following article: Downloading the Job Search Companion


Reading the Results

Once you've discovered or selected a job to match to your resume, you'll be presented with the below view:

On the right, you'll see keywords from the Job Description that are either included in your resume or missing.

  • Green: Included in your resume

  • Red: Missing from your resume

Hover over each keyword to scroll to that keyword in your resume, ignore the keyword, or create a bullet directly from the bullet!



Adding Keywords to Your Resume

Looking to add a keyword directly to your work experience?

  1. Hover over the keyword you'd like to add

  2. Select the magic pencil icon to begin the AI generation process!

You can click the (+) icon to add the keyword directly to your skills section!

Select which position you'd like to add the bullet to -

Select (or enter) additional keywords to add to the bullet or maintain your current selection -

Review the generated options and either select to "use bullet" or regenerate!



πŸ‘€ Display Settings & Switching Jobs

The menu in the Job Matcher allows you to adjust the display settings of your keywords & job description. This is also where you can switch which job you're matched to!
