Decision table
When this is the right tool — and when it isn't.
3 verdicts · honest cuts
01 · Pursue
Choose RoleWorth if
- You want to know whether a role deserves tailoring.
- You want resume matching to happen after the job earns effort.
- You want the output to become a package and pipeline entry.
02 · Maybe
Choose another tool if
- You only need a standalone keyword-match percentage.
03 · Skip
Choose neither if
- You do not have a target role yet.
Hidden cost
A better resume for the wrong job is still wasted time.
The wrong jobs don't just waste applications. They drain interview prep, recruiter outreach, and momentum.
| RoleWorth focus | Real-job signals, worth score, proof package, review gates, and manual-required boundaries. |
|---|---|
| Typical tool focus | Resume formatting, keyword match, tracker rows, generic autofill, or raw volume. |
| Public guardrail | Risk flags are evidence signals, not guarantees. Unsupported submit flows stop at manual review. |
