Compare my resume with a job posting for keyword and phrase gaps. Posting: [PASTE_JOB_POSTING]. My resume: [PASTE_RESUME].

Return tables only, then a short note.
Table 1, required terms from the posting: Term | Type (skill, tool, certification, responsibility, soft skill) | Appears in my resume? (exact, similar phrase, no) | Where | Priority (must have, nice to have).
Table 2, honest additions: Term missing | Do I have real evidence? (use my resume text; write "ask me" if unknown) | Where to place it | Suggested wording.
Table 3, wording to align: My phrase | Posting phrase | Suggested alignment (only if both mean the same thing).

Rules: never suggest adding a skill I cannot support; do not stuff keywords; keep natural sentences; avoid tables, text boxes, and images in the resume itself. The note after the tables should explain in three sentences how applicant tracking systems usually work and that recruiters also read the resume, so clarity matters more than keyword counts. Ask me which missing terms I can truthfully add.
