Hey Product Hunt I built RoastThisResume.com because I’ve watched friends, classmates, and colleagues struggle to land interviews, not because they lacked skills, but because their resumes didn’t sell them. The truth? HR rarely tells you what’s wrong with your resume. They just move on. That silence leaves people guessing and often repeating the same mistakes. I wanted to fix that, but in a way that’s fun, engaging, and brutally honest. Why it’s different from other resume tools Most resume checkers give you vague scores or generic keyword advice (“Add more skills!”). That’s fine… but it doesn’t tell you what actually makes a hiring manager stop reading. RoastThisResume.com: Pulls no punches - you’ll get direct feedback on weak wording, bad formatting, and missing impact. Isn’t just critique - it gives rewrite suggestions so you walk away with improvements, not just problems. Makes it fun - the “roast” style keeps it light enough to make you laugh while still pointing out serious fixes. AI-powered but human in tone - it feels like your brutally honest friend who actually wants you to get hired. Who it’s for - Job seekers who want unfiltered, actionable feedback before applying. - Students & grads trying to stand out without 10 years of experience. - Career changers needing to reframe their skills for a new industry. - Recruiters & career coaches who want a quick, entertaining tool to send clients. What I’m most proud of Since building it, I’ve heard from users who said they completely rewrote their resumes after a roast, and started landing interviews within weeks. Hearing “This is the first feedback that actually made sense” is exactly why I built it. This isn’t meant to replace professional resume services, it’s a bridge between silence and success. Your turn If you try it, I’d love to hear: Was the roast too harsh or just right? Did the suggestions feel actionable? What would make it even more useful? Drop your thoughts below, and yes, I can take the heat. :)

An effective concept that addresses real pain points. How does your AI balance brutal honesty with maintaining user motivation during the process? @itsjakegg

@rachitmagon Hey Rachit, thanks for the comments and feedback! Roast This Resume uses a “truth + path forward” model. Every blunt critique is paired with an actionable fix. The AI doesn’t just say what’s wrong, it immediately explains why it’s a problem and gives specific, realistic suggestions to improve it. Feedback is ordered from the easiest wins to the bigger overhauls, so users see quick progress and stay motivated. We also highlight the resume’s strengths alongside weaknesses, so users feel confident about what’s already working while knowing exactly how to improve the rest. After receiving either “sarcastic” or “serious” feedback, the user can also use the “Fix my Resume” feature to see if AI can enhance their resume for them!

This is truely awesome! I love the "brutally honest friend" angle – so many resume checkers are vague AF, but this actually gives you actionable feedback and rewrite suggestions. Seriously solves a huge problem. Kinda genius imo. Is there a way to export the roast/suggestions as a PDF for easy sharing?
