Welcome to Career Pulse ("Platform", "Service", "we", "us", or "our"), available at careerpulse.site. By accessing, logging in, or using our services, you ("User", "you") agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree with any part of these terms, you must not access or use the Platform.

4. Google API & Third-Party Service Integration

Our platform integrates with third-party providers including Google (Gmail API), Supabase, and AI inference engines:

  • Use of Google OAuth 2.0 features requires your explicit authorization and is governed by Google's Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.
  • You may disconnect third-party integrations at any time through the platform settings.
  • We are not responsible for service outages, rate limits, or account restrictions imposed by external third-party API providers.

5. Intellectual Property & Candidate Data Ownership

Your Data Remains Yours: You retain complete ownership and all intellectual property rights in your candidate profile, resume drafts, career portfolio, and custom communication texts. Career Pulse does not claim ownership over any user-provided content.

6. How the ATS Score Is Made

The ATS score is a number from 0 to 100 that Career Pulse works out on its own servers from the text of your resume and the job description. It is our estimate and not the score of any employer's or recruiter's system. Every employer's software is different, so a high number does not promise an interview. The same resume and job always give the same number, and the score never adds skills you did not write in your profile.

It has two groups of points. Each part below is worked out only from what is in your resume and the job:

  • Can software read your resume? (up to 40 points)
    • Section headings, 8 points: Standard headings such as Profile, Experience, Education, Skills and Projects are present.
    • Contact details, 8 points: An email address and a phone number can be read.
    • Dates, 8 points: Dates of work and study can be found (like Jan 2022, 2024 or Present).
    • Clean layout, 16 points: No tables or columns, bullet points are used, the sections are clear and the length is normal.
  • How well does it match this job? (up to 60 points)
    • Skills the job asks for, 29 points: How many of the job's technical skills your resume shows. You get full marks when your resume shows at least a third of the skills the job names and every skill of yours that matches is there.
    • Other keywords, 7 points: More keywords from the job that your resume also uses.
    • Job title, 9 points: Your resume speaks about the role the job is for.
    • Experience and education, 9 points: The resume has an experience section and an education section.
    • Wording similarity, 6 points: How close the words of your resume are to the words of the job.

When a job names no technical skills, the parts it gives no information about are left out and the rest is scaled to 60, so a short job post does not lower your score. The score is meant to help you improve your resume; it is not a judgment of you.

7. Disclaimer of Warranties & Employment Outcomes

Career Pulse is an assistive productivity tool. While we strive to provide accurate ATS scoring calibrations, job listings, and high-quality resume tailoring, we do not guarantee job offers, interview responses, employment placement, or specific hiring outcomes. The platform is provided on an "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" basis without warranties of any kind.

8. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Career Pulse and its operators shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including loss of data, loss of business opportunities, or missed employment opportunities arising out of your use of the platform.

9. Modifications to Terms
