What is Huntr's Keyword extraction and match feature?
Keyword extraction and matching is a powerful way to optimize your resume by identifying and incorporating key terms from job descriptions. Huntr’s AI powered tool makes this process simple by automatically highlighting important keywords (both hard and soft skills) that recruiters and applicant tracking systems (ATS) look for. The keywords will be collected, saved to Huntr, and can be added to your Tailored Resume.
You can add these keywords to your resume, improving your chances of getting noticed and landing interviews. This guide will walk you through how to use Huntr’s keyword extraction and matching tool to streamline your job search and tailor your resume for every application.

Using keywords within your Resume
Each tailored resume will present a Keyword Match Score. This outlines the amount of relevant and useful keywords that may or may not be added to your tailored resume.
Depending on the score, a suggestion to add more keywords to you resume can improve the overall Keyword Match. We suggest that about 70% coverage is ideal for resumes.
You can choose to add these keywords where you feel they are most applicable. You may choose to add them to your skills, your professional summary, or your work experience.
