Why government resumes are different
Unlike private roles, government / PSU / bank recruitments often look for:
- ✅ Clearly stated personal details (DOB, category, address, contact)
- ✅ Education with year, board/university, and %/CGPA
- ✅ Employment/service history in reverse order
- ✅ Skill / computer proficiency section
- ✅ Document and application number references
Our scan helps you check these before you submit — so you don’t get rejected for something avoidable.
How the Government Resume Scan works
- Step 1 — Upload/paste: Add your current resume to the scanner.
- Step 2 — Select “Government / PSU / Bank” path: This toggles checks for sections government jobs usually want.
- Step 3 — Get gaps: We highlight missing personal/education/service lines, non-standard headings, and risky layouts.
- Step 4 — Fix with our prompts: We give you phrasing for experience and projects in simpler, verifiable language.
- Step 5 — Re-scan: Run it again to reach a clean baseline.
Pair this with the Why Resumes Get Rejected in ATS guide if you also apply to private jobs.
What we check
1. Structure
Order of sections, headings, spacing — readable in print and PDF.
2. Eligibility signals
DOB, nationality, category (if applicable), references to certificates.
3. Education
Board/university, year, % or CGPA, professional courses.
4. Experience wording
Simple outcome lines — not heavy marketing language.
5. Attachments / notes
Lines to mention enclosures if the recruitment wants it.
6. File readiness
Tips for naming your PDF as per notification (name_dob_post.pdf).
Common mistakes we see
- ❌ Only private-sector format, no personal/ID details.
- ❌ No mention of computer proficiency when the post asks for it.
- ❌ Fancy 2-column layouts that don’t print well.
- ❌ Achievements written in buzzwords, not duties/results.
- ❌ Missing signature/date line when submitting offline.
Fix these once and reuse the resume for multiple notifications.

Will this make selection guaranteed?
