Understanding Resume Tailoring

Learn what resume tailoring means and how AI helps match your content to job descriptions.

What is Resume Tailoring

Resume tailoring is the process of adapting your resume to a specific job by emphasizing the most relevant experiences, skills, and achievements.
Letraz automates this step, saving hours of manual editing.


How AI Analyzes Job Descriptions

When you enter a job listing or paste its text, Letraz’s AI scans for:

  • Role-specific skills and keywords

  • Key responsibilities

  • Preferred qualifications

  • Industry tone (formal, technical, or creative)

It then scores your Base Resume against the job description to identify alignment gaps.


The Tailoring Process Explained

  1. Start from your Base Resume.

  2. Provide a job link/job description

  3. Letraz analyzes and matches your content.

  4. AI rewrites and enhances relevant sections.

  5. You review and refine before exporting.

You’ll receive a version personalized to that specific role, without touching your original resume.


ATS Optimization

Letraz ensures your tailored resume stays ATS-friendly:

  • Keywords from job descriptions are included naturally.

  • Layout remains simple and text-based.

  • Sections are kept consistent for scanner readability.

Tip: The goal is not keyword stuffing, it’s contextual relevance.


Resume Scoring and Matching

After tailoring, Letraz displays a match score (e.g., “82% match”).
This gives you an idea of how well your resume aligns with the job’s requirements and highlights areas for improvement.
