This guide shows the fastest path from signup to a real first action in Resumely.

Why Use Resumely?

Resumely helps recruiters screen applicants at scale and manage the hiring flow from job creation to interviews.

What You'll Learn

  • Creating an account and setting up your profile
  • Creating your first job posting
  • Uploading and screening applicants
  • Managing your hiring pipeline

Step 1: Create an Account

Head over to resumely.live/register and fill in your details. You can sign up with:

  • Email and password
  • Google

Tip: recruiters land on the recruiter dashboard. Public applicants can apply to public jobs without a dashboard.

Step 2: Create Your First Job

Once logged in, click the "New Job" button from your dashboard. Fill in these details:

  1. Job Title - be specific, for example Senior React Developer instead of Developer.
  2. Description - write clearly with sections for responsibilities and requirements.
  3. Required Skills - list skills the AI should look for, for example React, TypeScript, AWS.
  4. Nice-to-Have Skills - bonus qualifications that improve scores but are not dealbreakers.
  5. Visibility - choose Public, Internal, or Private.

The more detailed your job description, the more accurate the AI match scores will be.

Navigate to your job's Screening tab and upload resumes. Supported formats:

| Format | Max Size | Notes | | ------ | -------- | --------------------------------- | | PDF | 10 MB | Recommended, preserves formatting | | DOCX | 10 MB | Microsoft Word documents | | DOC | 10 MB | Legacy Word format |

Click "Start Screening" and the backend will process each resume. Results include:

  • Match Score - overall fit percentage
  • Fit Badge - Strong Fit, Good Fit, Consider, or Not Recommended
  • Matched Keywords - skills found in the resume
  • Missing Keywords - skills not found in the resume
