Our tool checks your uploaded file against three critical structural design parameters:
view_quilt 1. Layout Parsability
We check if text reading bots can process your content line-by-line without scrambling your sentences. Multi-column blocks and graphic text elements often trigger errors here.
assignment_turned_in 2. Standard Heading Structure
We ensure your section titles map perfectly to expected terms like "Work Experience," "Skills," and "Education," instead of vague or overly creative headings.
flag 3. Regional Field Validation
Hiring standards vary across regions. We check for missing required details, such as European CEFR language tables or mandatory Gulf residency information.
