Resume Support by Blomma - Get past the ATS with practical advice, skills and edits

by•
Ever applied for a job and never even gotten a call? Often your resume is filtered out by an applicant tracking system (ATS) before a person ever reads it... and you never get to know why. Blomma's new tool shows you how yours reads (to the ATS, the recruiter, and the hiring manager) then helps you spot the skills to put front and center, the ones to build, and rewrites your resume around the real outcomes that get callbacks. We can't promise you the job—but we'll help your skills get seen.

For the last couple of months, people have been sending me their resumes. Friends, people I sort of know, a few strangers from communities I'm in. It's always some version of the same question: why isn't this working? I've hired hundreds of people over my career. I've read the resumes, sat in the interviews and debriefs, decided who moves forward. And here's the thing... most people never find out why they got passed over. So they do the only thing they can. They run their resume through another tool that optimizes it for the ATS and hope this version does better. But getting past the filter was never really the problem. The problem is nobody tells you what got you in or out... or what to build so it goes differently next time. So we built a free tool to help. It reads your resume the way a hiring manager would, tells you what's working and what's making people hesitate, and shows you the skills worth building next. It'll rewrite it too, if you want. It won't get you a job. I won't pretend otherwise. What it can do is tell you the stuff people are usually too polite, or too busy, to say. If you try the tool, we'd love to hear your thoughts. And no matter what, we're rooting for you 🧡

 The tone of this launch post is fantastic, rooting for you guys congrats🙌

Maker

 appreciate the support!

Super clean tool and a launch message that actually feels empathetic. Congrats🙌 on going live.
qq does it evaluate context around achievements (like metrics, scale, team size), or is it mostly looking at role positioning and skill alignment?

Maker

 thank you Priya! It does look at both angles:

  • how to tell a better story

  • How to present metrics

  • What skills you need to build to stand out

Hope it’s helpful!

I’ve been a Blomma user for a few months and it has made genuinely material impact to my career already. The new app is delightful to use and the team continues to ship at a ridiculous pace. Congrats team!

 Thank you so much for the kind words 🙏🏾

This has been so helpful especially in navigating my career pivot and trying to figure out how my background and experiences map into my new role!!

love this! curious if it's giving general feedback on the resume, or if it's also pulling in the job description to give feedback with the context of the actual role?

Maker

 Thanks for the support, and for the excellent question!! 🙏🏾

The tool can do both! If you provide the tool with a specific job description, it will customize the resume suggestions for that role. If you don't have a job description, it will still give general feedback on how to improve your resume.

Love this launch! Showing how different people & systems actually read your CV definitely makes the feedback far more actionable than just giving it a score!! I can see this helping a ton of people

 appreciate your support!

I like this so much, it is a challenge and it can help provide insights as people continue to refine, build and learn both on their resume but what they bring to the conversations in the interviews.. Linking then with the insight back to the coach to support decisions on how or where to adapt with how to stick to their 'truths' they bring is also key - this helps ensure they don't start to represent in a way that isn't aligned to what they actually bring. Exploring the balance of the insight with reflections on their truth - better keeps them in the right space to ensure they aren't just 'interviewing' to 'win' but also space to take a step back for the candidate to assess if the place is right for them - company mission, culture - manager and their style and alignment with them, etc.

 So glad you like this, and thanks so much for the thoughtful note! 🙏🏾
