Illustrative sample report

See what the diagnostic explains before you upload.

This fictional example shows the expected report hierarchy: an overall interpretation, weighted category scores, supporting evidence, priority gaps, and practical next steps.

Weighted breakdown

Understand why the score was assigned.

A useful diagnostic should connect every category to a reason and observable resume evidence. A number without explanation is not enough.

20% weight

ATS compatibility and parsability

82

Illustrative evidence: The document uses standard sections and the text is readable, but dense formatting may slow scanning.

20% weight

Role targeting and alignment

68

Illustrative evidence: The target function is visible, but the opening summary and skills language are still broad.

25% weight

Evidence, impact, and outcomes

71

Illustrative evidence: Several achievements are present, but too many bullets describe activity without enough scope or outcome.

15% weight

Structure and recruiter readability

79

Illustrative evidence: The hierarchy is generally clear, although older experience could be compressed.

15% weight

Seniority, scope, and positioning

70

Illustrative evidence: Leadership is implied, but decision influence, enterprise scope, and ownership need stronger evidence.

5% weight

Completeness and screening friction

85

Illustrative evidence: Core information is present and there are no major extraction or completeness concerns.

Highest-priority opportunities

Focus first on the changes most likely to improve clarity.

The report is designed to prioritize rather than overwhelm. Recommendations should be specific enough to act on and appropriately qualified when context is limited.

Priority 1

Clarify the target level in the opening third

Replace the broad summary with a concise positioning statement that names the function, level, scope, and strongest value themes.

Priority 2

Strengthen evidence of ownership and impact

Prioritize bullets that show decisions, scale, complexity, measurable outcomes, and what changed because of the work.

Priority 3

Align the language to the target role

Use relevant employer language naturally where it accurately describes the candidate's experience.

Illustrative improvement

Show the difference without inventing a career.

Paid support can turn a diagnostic into clearer, more specific language. Every final statement must remain truthful and supportable by the client's actual experience.

Before

“Experienced professional responsible for strategy, operations, reporting, and project management across multiple teams.”

Illustrative after

“Strategy and operations leader translating complex business priorities into executive-ready plans, measurable performance improvement, and cross-functional execution.”

Truthfulness standard: This example improves focus and language without adding unsupported metrics, responsibilities, or experience. Never add a number, scope statement, accomplishment, or credential that cannot be supported as accurate.
