Browser — CV & Job Match Checker

Know your odds before you apply.

Clever Clog checks your CV against a real job posting and scores the match — then shows you exactly what's working, what's missing, and how to close the gap before you hit submit.

How It Works

Two documents in, one score out.

Paste or upload your CV, then paste or upload the job posting you're applying to. Hit Check, and Clever Clog reads both and scores how closely they match — with a full breakdown of why.

What It Does

The basics.

Input

Paste or Upload

Paste text directly, or upload your CV and the job posting as PDF, Word, or plain text.

Score

Answer a few honest questions about the gaps, and Clever Clog rebuilds your CV around what you actually have — then re-scores it.

Why It Matters

Software reads your CV first.

Most applications are screened by software before a person ever sees them — get the wording wrong, and a genuinely qualified CV can be filtered out automatically. Clever Clog closes that gap by scoring your CV the way that first read does, before you submit.
