Readiness Score

Check your GovCon resume readiness

A scored checklist for transitioning service members covering clearance clarity and placement, jargon removal, quantified scope, title translation, resume length, and LinkedIn consistency. Each gap comes with an action to fix it.

Before you apply to a government contractor role, score your resume the way a GovCon recruiter will. The readiness check scans for the things that get a military-to-contractor resume skipped: clearance buried below the contact line, military jargon and unexplained acronyms, duty lists with no numbers, a title that still reads as a military occupation, and a LinkedIn that disagrees with the resume.

Run the checklist for free, no account required. Each gap comes with a specific action to fix it, and the same score is computed automatically at the end of the guided translator if you want it scored against your own translated bullets. Built only for transitioning service members and federal employees moving into Government Contracting, and public-safe only.
