Find the keywords your CV is missing

Why keywords decide the outcome

Both ATS systems and recruiters use keyword search to surface relevant candidates. If a recruiter searches their database for "kubernetes, observability, SRE," they only see the CVs that contain those terms in roughly the expected context. Your experience may be perfect — but if the words aren't there, you don't appear.

What the scanner does

• Extracts requirements from the job description — hard skills, soft skills, tools, methodologies, and recurring phrases.
• Compares against your CV to find matched keywords and missing keywords.
• Flags exact-phrase mismatches — cases where you have the experience but used different terminology.
• Suggests where to surface the missing terms — without keyword stuffing or inventing experience.

The right way to add keywords

Keyword optimization isn't about cramming a skills list at the bottom of your CV. ATS systems and recruiters give more weight to terms that appear in context — inside your experience bullets, your summary, and your role descriptions. CVLYTIQ rewrites those sections to weave in the missing terminology naturally, only where the underlying experience supports it.

What we will never do

We never invent skills, employers, dates, certifications, or experience. The CV we produce contains only what's already true on the source you upload — re-phrased, re-structured, and re-prioritised for the role you're targeting.
