A 90-second tour of Jiablo

Jiablo tunes your resume's Skills section to match a job description so it gets past the applicant tracker and in front of a person. Same resume, same bullets, the right skills on top.

Quick Start

Sign in with Google.
Upload your resume as a PDF. Jiablo keeps your content and rebuilds the layout in a clean format that screening software can read, then shows you the result. Hit Looks good, save it when the preview matches what you uploaded.
Open Tailor and paste the job description into the textarea.
Click Create tailored resume. About five seconds.
Review the suggested skills, organized by category. Your existing skills are pre-checked; the job's suggestions are not. Toggle until the list is what you want for this application.
Click Compile with N skills, then Download PDF. Past tailors stay on your Account page for seven days.

How It Works

Three steps. About five seconds end-to-end.

01
Read the job
Jiablo reads the job description and pulls out every concrete tool, language, framework, or platform it mentions. Each one is matched to one of your existing Skills categories. Soft skills, perks, and 'years of experience' phrases are filtered out so you only see what's worth deciding on.
02
You pick
Each category becomes a row of skill chips. Your current skills are pre-checked. The job's suggestions are not. Toggle to taste. Unchecking an existing skill removes it from this PDF only. Your saved resume stays untouched.
03
Get the PDF
Jiablo writes your final selection into your resume and builds a clean PDF named FirstLast_Company_Role.pdf (the format is configurable in your account settings). Single column, easy for screening software to read, ready to upload.

What happens to your formatting

When you upload a PDF, Jiablo keeps your content, your words, your experience, and the order you put things in, and rebuilds the layout in a clean, single-column format. Here's why: most applications get scanned by screening software before a person ever reads them, and decorative layouts (columns, tables, icons, graphics) are exactly what those scanners stumble on. A plain, text-first format reads cleanly every time.

You lose the original styling, but you keep the part that actually matters: your content, in a form both software and people can read. If the rebuilt version is missing something or looks off, review it line by line under Look it over, or upload a corrected PDF.

Getting the Best Output

Paste the whole job description

Select-all + copy on the job posting page, then paste into the textarea on Tailor. Context like 'we use AWS and GCP' or 'familiar with Prometheus' is what drives the skills update, so include the full posting rather than just the bullet list.

Glance at the detected skills before compiling

The preview shows exactly what Jiablo pulled out. If a key term is missing, the job probably didn't include the literal word. Add it to the textarea and re-tailor.

Review before downloading

The preview shows the skills it's about to add before you commit. If it looks wrong, edit your job description or re-run. Failed runs don't count against your daily cap. Only completed builds do.

One tool, one job

Jiablo tailors your Skills section. Bullets, summary, and education stay yours to write. The point is to clear the applicant tracker on a per-job basis without rewriting your whole resume each time.

Good to Know

Skills section is what gets tailored. Bullets, education, and the rest stay exactly how you wrote them.
One resume per account. Upload a new one any time to replace it.
English job descriptions. The skills extraction is tuned for English postings.
Desktop browsers. Chrome, Safari, Edge, and Firefox all work. Mobile may render but isn't the intended experience.

Built for the Exact TrackerComing soon

Different companies run different applicant trackers, and the same resume can read very differently depending on which one is parsing it. The next layer of Jiablo is built around exactly that.

It knows where you're applying

Paste a job and Jiablo recognizes the applicant tracker the company uses, so the guidance is specific to where your resume is actually headed instead of generic 'ATS-friendly' advice.

A fit score you can watch move

See how well your resume matches a posting, then watch the number climb as you adjust your skills. No more guessing whether a change actually helped.

The right file for the system

Some trackers read PDFs cleanly and others do better with Word. Jiablo tells you which to send for a given job and lets you download either one.

Honest by design

The score has a ceiling on purpose. Jiablo will never push you to stuff keywords or hide text to inflate a number, since that is what gets real resumes filtered out. Once you've done what genuinely helps, it says so.

On the way, and it will roll out to everyone. Your Skills tailoring keeps working exactly as it does today in the meantime.

Troubleshooting

Hit your daily cap

Caps reset at 00:00 UTC every day. If you're on Free or Search, you can upgrade for a higher cap from the account menu.

Page chrome ended up in my pasted JD

Some job boards include nav, footer, and 'related jobs' text when you select-all the page. Either narrow your selection to just the job description before copying, or paste the full page and trim out the obvious chrome before clicking Create tailored resume.

The PDF didn't build

Rare. Usually a strange character somewhere in the resume or job description tripped the typesetter. Edit the job text slightly and re-tailor. Failed runs don't count against your daily cap.

Detected skills list is short or wrong

The job description might be too short, or what we pulled in includes too much sidebar/footer text. Paste a cleaner copy of just the job content.

The Skills block didn't change

Either the job didn't introduce any skills you don't already have, or you unchecked every suggestion. Re-open the job and re-tailor. If every category still shows only your existing chips, the job genuinely overlaps with your current resume. No changes needed.
