JD Matcher — Paste a Job Description to See Skill Gaps

Highlight required skills, missing gaps, and recruiter keywords in seconds. Send the results directly into your 90-day plan.

Unlimited basic scans free. Pro users unlock deep-dive credits.

Why it matters

A faster loop between job descriptions and weekly execution

Stop rewriting your plan every time you see a new JD. PathGen surfaces missing skills, maps modules, and updates your portfolio checklist automatically.

Required vs missing skills

Instantly see what the JD expects and where your current plan already covers those areas.

Keyword alignment

Attach recruiter-friendly keywords to your weekly deliverables and resume bullet points.

Plan hand-off

Send the JD insights straight into your 90-day plan so new modules appear in the right phase.

Paste your role and JD

We’ll analyse the skills, keywords, and experience signals recruiters care about. Then we show what PathGen will adjust.

Tips
  • Include bullet lists and responsibilities to improve extraction accuracy.
  • Add salary bands or seniority cues if the JD includes them.
  • You can rerun the matcher after adjusting your plan to track coverage.

We never store your JD unless you choose to save it inside PathGen.

Process

How the matcher feeds your 90-day plan

1. Parse the JD

We extract core skills, tooling, seniority language, and domain context.

2. Surface gaps

Missing skills are grouped by phase with recommended weekly cards and deliverables.

3. Sync with plan

Send the results into PathGen and regenerate your roadmap with a single click.

What we extract

Signals we pull from every JD

Required skills

SQL, experimentation, stakeholder comms, or domain-specific tools that recruiters list as mandatory.

Missing skills

Gaps compared to your current baseline inputs and saved modules.

Recruiter keywords

Language to reuse in resumes, cover letters, and weekly deliverables.

Deliverable hints

Suggested portfolio artefacts that make the JD requirements tangible (dashboards, memos, briefs).

FAQ

Common questions about the JD matcher

1

Is the matcher free?

Basic parsing is free and unlimited. PathGen Pro unlocks deep-dive credits with more granular recommendations.

2

Do you store my job descriptions?

We process the JD transiently for analysis. Save it to your account only if you want it tied to a plan.

3

Can I use this for multiple roles?

Yes. Run the matcher for each JD and see how PathGen adjusts your roadmap or highlights overlapping keywords.

4

Does this replace resume tailoring?

It gives you the keywords and deliverables to reference. You’re still in control of how you pitch them across resume, portfolio, and interviews.
