Getting Started
Your Gap Report
The gap report is the first thing GapFix shows you after reading your resume (or the skills you entered) against your target role. Here's how to read it.
Your Role-Fit Score
At the top of the report is your role-fit score — a percentage showing how closely your current skills match what your target role expects. It's a starting point, not a judgment: the whole app exists to move that number.
The Four Gap Labels
Every skill that matters for your target role gets one of four labels:
- Missing — the role expects it and your profile doesn't show it yet. These get the most attention in your plan.
- Needs work — you have some grounding, but not yet at the level the role demands.
- Refresher — you've had it before; it needs dusting off, not relearning from scratch.
- Strong — you're already there. Your plan won't waste your time on these.
Quick Wins
The report also calls out Quick Wins — the gaps you can close fastest for the biggest lift in role fit. They make great first targets: early progress you can feel in week one, not week twelve.
From Report to Plan
Your gap report feeds directly into your personalized 12-week plan: 12 weeks, 7 daily focuses per week, sized to the weekly hours you choose. Missing skills get the deepest coverage, needs-work skills get targeted practice, and refreshers get lighter touches to bring them back.
Once you start learning, your GapFix Score (0–100) tracks your readiness live as you complete lessons and reviews — and at milestone weeks, a free reassessment can re-tune the remaining weeks of your plan based on your real progress.
If the Report Looks Off
The analysis can only see what you gave it. If a skill you have is labeled Missing, it probably isn't visible on your CV — add it manually or update your resume and scan again. Still looks wrong? Tell us at help@gapfix.app.
