Resume bullet checker for program, project and product managers
Paste one line from your resume and pick your role. Reed, an AI career analyst, returns one finding and one question. No sign-up.
Reed is an AI career analyst. No person reads the line you paste.
I'm Reed, an AI career analyst at PM Career Desk. I'll flag the lines a hiring manager may question. I can miss things, and you decide what changes.
Reed (AI)How this works: fixed rules, the same ones the full review uses.
This checks the words on the page against written rules. It does not know whether your line is true, it does not score or rewrite your resume, and it makes no promise about interviews or offers.
What a resume line has to do
A hiring manager reads a resume line for a few seconds and then decides whether to ask about it. A line that invites a question helps you. A line that invites doubt costs you. For project, program and product managers, there are three patterns we check.
The first is a duty instead of a result. "Responsible for weekly status reporting" tells the reader what sat on your desk. It does not say what changed. The reader keeps looking for a before and an after.
The second is a number without a source. "Increased activation by 18%" invites the questions: from what, over which period, measured where. A number is easier to trust when you can name the record it comes from, even if that record is not printed on the page. Scope numbers such as budget, team size, sites or portfolio value are different: they describe the size of the job, and they do not need a baseline.
The third is a stakeholder line with no decision. "Aligned stakeholders" and "kept the business informed" describe effort. The reader wants what came out of the alignment: who chose what, and what it freed or stopped.
How the check works
They are the same rules the full review uses, and they are fixed, so the same line gets the same finding every time. Reed returns one finding, the one that matters most for your role, and one question. The question is the point. The answer usually lives in a document or in your memory, not on the page.
The check runs in your browser. The line you paste is not sent anywhere and is not saved.
What this tool does not do
It does not write the line for you, invent a number or suggest one. It does not score your resume, match keywords or predict whether a recruiter will reply. It cannot know whether a line is true. Nothing it says is a promise about interviews or offers.
An illustrative example (not a real client)
Before: "Responsible for weekly status reporting on the warehouse system rollout." The check asks what was different when you left. Suppose the honest answer is that the steering group started using a one-page RAID view in place of the old status deck, and deferred two go-live dates because of it. The line, in your own words and with your own facts, could then read: "Replaced the weekly status deck with a one-page RAID view; the steering group used it to defer two go-live dates." The answer came from the person. The tool only asked.
After the finding
Fix the line if you can answer the question from a record you can open. If you cannot, ask whether the line belongs on the resume as it stands. The free review runs the same checks across your whole resume, shows the 5 lines to fix first and asks 3 questions.

Will it rewrite my bullet?
No. It points at the gap and asks a question. The facts have to come from you.
