Synthalyst Match and Synthalyst Optimize work together to match, tailor, and track — so you can focus on performing, not searching.
Preference Fit, Resume Strength, and Interview Chance — three scores that tell you whether you want the job, whether your resume will get seen, and whether you'll be picked once it is.
Three scores, not just one numberEvery application gets a resume tailored to that specific job — automatically optimized for ATS and relevance.
Tailored for each roleProper formatting, keyword alignment, and structure so a recruiter searching the applicant tracking system (ATS) actually finds you.
Findable when recruiters search3-20 high-quality matched jobs per day, each with a match score and a verdict explaining the reason. Fewer results, better outcomes.
Precision matchingTrack every application from submission to interview. Never lose track of where you applied.
Full application pipelineSee exactly what skills to develop to unlock better opportunities and higher match scores.
Actionable career insightsEvery job match answers three different questions along the hiring funnel — from “do you want it?” to “will you be picked?” Here's what each score means and what to do when one is low.
Resume Strength gets you into the pool. Interview Chance tells you your odds once you're in.
Quick note on ATS: ATS = Applicant Tracking System — the software most large companies (especially in the US, Canada, UK, Australia, and Western Europe) use to store applications in a searchable database. Recruiters search and sort that database, then read from the top down — so what matters is how findable your resume is and how high it ranks when a recruiter searches. The signals below apply whether or not your target employer uses an ATS — recruiters everywhere skim and rank resumes the same way, just by hand. Resume Strength measures the same things either way: whether your resume gives a recruiter the right signals in the seconds they spend on it.
“Do I want this job?”
We compare the job against the preferences you set — titles, skills, location, salary. A high score means this job checks your boxes. A low score means it doesn't match what you're looking for.
If low:
Skip it, or update your preferences if your targets have shifted.
“Gets me into the pool?”
How well your resume matches this job — skills, credentials (degree, certifications, years), titles, and experience level, measured against the job posting. This is what an ATS ranks on and a 7-second recruiter scan checks. Low means you'll rank too low to be read, or get knocked out entirely by missing credentials.
If low:
Use Synthalyst Optimize — it rewrites your resume for this specific job so it lines up more closely with what the posting asks for.
“Would a recruiter advance you?”
How a recruiter reading your resume would judge you — your career path, depth of evidence, credentials, and how well your background fits what this specific role requires. This goes beyond keywords to ask whether your experience actually clears the bar for the role.
If low:
Stretch or not qualified — optimizing the resume won't fix real gaps in your background. Consider upskilling or different targets.
