FairCV vs Jobscan:
A keyword check with a known price.
Jobscan is known as a resume-to-job-description scanner. This page does not claim to reproduce Jobscan’s score. The monthly figure that used to appear here was not re-confirmed on the check date.

Same job, different check
FairCV’s matcher is a deterministic gap list: a term from the posting is either on the resume or it is not. You can add a missing term to the skills section. It does not produce a Jobscan score, and a high overlap is not a promise that an employer will interview you.
Because the Jobscan pricing page did not return a price on the check date, this page does not multiply $49.95 into a seasonal total. Use Jobscan’s own page for the current charge.

How does FairCV’s keyword matcher work?
FairCV compares your resume with a job description in the browser. It highlights terms that are present and terms that are missing, and you can add a missing term to the skills section. It does not reproduce Jobscan’s scoring model.
Does FairCV store or sell my resume and job descriptions?
Drafts stay in your browser by default. If you sign in, FairCV can store that resume in your account so you can open it on another device. FairCV does not sell resume data.
Does FairCV auto-renew?
No. Neither the $4.00 single pass nor the $14.00 30-day pass renews. When the pass expires, it ends.
