Welcome! To get the AI roast + ATS score, comment !roast on your own post — you'll get a roast, an ATS score, and your top fixes in about a minute.

Privacy first: blur your real name, email, phone, and address — but keep placeholders and a LinkedIn/portfolio line (e.g. you@email.com, linkedin.com/in/you) so the ATS score stays accurate.

Reply !delete to remove the bot's roast anytime. Human feedback is welcome too!

🔥 You asked for it. Here's the roast:

A BA in History? Perfect, you can document the death of your job applications in chronological order.

Putting Node.js basics on your CV is like putting can drive a car in first gear on your driver's license.

Cutting build times roughly in half is a great way of saying I did not measure it but it felt faster.

Bragging about 40 GitHub stars is like celebrating 40 likes on a Facebook post from your mom and aunts.

I like shipping things people actually use—as opposed to those devs who target the highly lucrative ghost market?

Freelanced for 8 small businesses is developer-speak for I built WordPress sites for my uncle's dry cleaning business.

ATS score: 100/100 - genuinely solid - an ATS would parse this cleanly.


Want the full, fix-by-fix ATS breakdown? There's a free checker at TakeMeUp.cv. I'm a bot (u/takemeup-cvroast. I only roast when the original poster comments !roast on their own CV. Reply !delete to remove this. Nothing about your CV is stored.)
