Free resume parser: turn a pile of resumes into one Excel sheet

Drop in up to 25 resumes at once. The parser reads each one and puts the details in a table, one row per candidate: name, phone, email, current job, years of experience, notice period, CTC, education and skills. Download it as an Excel or CSV file. Free for up to 100 resumes a day, with no sign-up.

Your files open in your browser. Only the text is sent to our AI model to read it, and nothing is saved.

What the resume parser pulls out

Each resume becomes one row in the sheet. These are the columns:

  • Name, phone number, email and LinkedIn link
  • City the candidate lives in
  • Current job title and company
  • Total years of full-time work, worked out from the job dates if the resume does not say
  • Notice period, current CTC and expected CTC, if the resume gives them
  • Highest degree, college and year of passing
  • Up to 10 skills, the most important first
  • The file name, so you can find the resume again

How to use it

Save the resumes you want to sort into one folder. They can come from your inbox, a job board or LinkedIn. Then:

  • Drop up to 25 files on the box above, or click it to choose them
  • Wait a few seconds for each resume to be read
  • Check the table. A cell is blank when the resume does not have that detail
  • Click Download Excel. Sort by experience or filter by notice period to make your shortlist

What happens to your files

Your files are opened in your browser, not uploaded. Only the text of each resume is sent to our AI model so it can read it. Goodfit does not save the text, the files or the results, and neither Goodfit nor its AI providers train models on them.

The Excel file is made in your browser too. If you close the page before you download it, the results are gone.

Resume parser vs an applicant tracking system

A resume parser only reads resumes and puts the details in rows. An applicant tracking system (ATS) also keeps every candidate in one place and tracks them from application to offer.

If you get a few dozen resumes for a role, a sheet is often enough. If you hire for many roles every month, an ATS saves you from keeping many sheets up to date.

A resume tells you what someone wrote, not how they work

The sheet helps you decide who to talk to first. It cannot tell you how a candidate explains things, handles a hard customer or solves a problem. That needs an interview.

Goodfit calls every applicant or sends them a browser link, asks the same questions and gives each one a score out of 10. Every score links to the recording and the transcript, so you call back only the best.

FAQ

Questions about the resume parser

Is the resume parser free?
Yes. You can read up to 25 resumes at a time and 100 a day, with no sign-up and no email.
Does Goodfit keep my resumes?
No. The files open in your browser. Only the text is sent to our AI model to read, and it is not saved. The Excel file is made in your browser.
Which files can it read?
PDF, Word (.docx) and plain text files. For an old .doc file, open it in Word and save it as .docx or PDF first. A scanned resume saved as an image has no text, so the parser cannot read it.
How accurate is it?
It copies what the resume says. If a resume does not mention the notice period or CTC, that cell is left blank. Years of experience are worked out from the job dates when there is no total, so check a few rows before you share the sheet.
Can I parse more than 100 resumes a day?
Come back the next day for 100 more. If you get hundreds of applicants for every role, Goodfit can interview all of them by phone and rank them by score, so you do not need to sort resumes at all.
