This all started with 47 rejection emails. I was job hunting for 14 months. I had the experience, I had the skills — but my resume kept getting rejected within 24 hours. Sometimes within the same day. I knew I wasn't a bad candidate. But I had no idea why I kept getting filtered out. So I did what any frustrated developer would do — I built a tool to figure it out. I wrote a script that compared my resume against a job description and showed me exactly what was missing. Which keywords I wasn't using. Which bullet points were weak. What needed to be rephrased. It worked for me. I stopped getting instant rejections. Eventually, I landed a role. After I got hired, friends started asking to try it. Then strangers. So I turned it into a proper tool: GoatOpt. Here's the honest truth: I'm not a recruiter. I'm a developer who got tired of being ignored by machines. GoatOpt is my attempt to help other job seekers understand what the ATS is actually looking for — and give them a clear path to fix their resume. If you're job searching right now, I feel you. It's brutal out there. I hope this tool makes it just a little bit easier. I'd love to hear your feedback — good, bad, or brutally honest. What works? What's confusing? What's missing? Thanks for checking it out 🙏
