Many people send the same resume everywhere, but most companies now use ATS filters and keyword matching, so resumes often get rejected before a human even sees them.
The advice everywhere is: “Customize your resume and cover letter for every job.”
But doing that properly takes 20–40 minutes per application, which makes it hard to apply consistently.
So I built cvrepair.guru.
- Upload your resume (once)
- Paste the job description
And it generates:
a resume optimized for that specific role
a natural-sounding cover letter tailored to the job
The goal isn’t mass-applying to hundreds of jobs. It’s helping people quickly tailor applications so they have a better chance of passing ATS filters and getting interviews.
I originally built it after seeing friends (and myself) send many applications with very few responses.
Would really appreciate feedback from the HN community.
What I’m curious about:
- What would make this more useful in your job search workflow?
- Any features you wish existed for customizing resumes faster?
- Anything in the output you'd improve?
