How I run these comparisons

Every tool is tested on at least three real, anonymised candidate CVs (a graduate, a mid-career professional, and a senior sector-changer). Outputs are compared line-by-line against the source CV — any tool that hallucinates metrics is marked down, regardless of affiliate status. Read the full testing methodology.
