Beat the ATS Filter on Reed, Indeed UK
& TotalJobs
Most CVs are rejected by automated software before a human ever reads them. JobAssistAI shows you your ATS score before you apply — and fixes what is missing.
What is ATS and why does it matter?
What is an ATS?
An Applicant Tracking System is software most UK employers use to filter CVs before a human reads them. If your CV does not contain the right keywords, it is automatically rejected — even if you are a strong candidate.
Which employers use ATS in the UK?
Most employers with more than 50 staff use ATS software. This includes virtually all applications submitted through Reed, Indeed UK, and TotalJobs. Roles at banks, retailers, NHS trusts, and the civil service almost always involve automated screening.
How many CVs get rejected by ATS?
Industry estimates suggest 70-75% of CVs are rejected before a human sees them. The most common reason is a mismatch between the CV's language and the exact terms in the job description.
How It Works
Know exactly where your CV stands before you apply
The score tells you what to fix. The AI does the fixing. You apply with confidence.
Your ATS score — before you hit submit
See a percentage match between your CV and the job description before you apply. The score reflects keyword coverage, skill alignment, and how closely your experience mirrors what the employer asked for.
Exact keywords you are missing
The tool identifies which terms appear in the job description but not in your CV — and which terms you have covered. No guesswork. You see the gap, close it, and recheck in seconds.
Built for UK job boards specifically
Reed, Indeed UK, TotalJobs, and LinkedIn all use ATS filtering on submitted applications. Our optimiser is calibrated to the keywords and competency language UK employers use — not US job market norms.
Simple Process

Paste the job description
Copy any job posting from Reed, Indeed UK, TotalJobs, or any employer's careers page. The AI reads the full description and identifies every keyword and competency that matters.
