Decoder

About Decoder

Decoder is a career visibility diagnostic tool built specifically for compliance, AML, BSA, and regulatory risk professionals. It identifies exactly why qualified candidates get overlooked by modern recruiter search systems — and shows them precisely what to fix.

Most job seekers assume that getting ghosted means their resume isn't strong enough. For compliance professionals, the real problem is different: the language of regulatory work — frameworks, examiner terminology, enforcement acronyms — often doesn't match how HR teams write job postings or how ATS systems categorize candidates. Decoder closes that gap.

Using a two-layer scoring engine called the Recruiter Visibility Index (RVI), Decoder evaluates your resume against the actual Boolean search patterns recruiters use in platforms like LinkedIn Recruiter and HireEZ. It scores your title alignment, domain framework coverage, tool signal density, and narrative framing — then delivers a corrective positioning blueprint showing exactly which signals to change and why.

Decoder is built and maintained by Ronnie Norris Jr., a Risk and Compliance professional who submitted 51 applications to qualified roles and received only 9 callbacks. After reverse-engineering recruiter search behavior in financial services, he built the tool he wished he had — and made it free for the professionals who need it most.

Whether you're an AML analyst, a BSA officer, a compliance manager, or a regulatory specialist, Decoder gives you the intelligence to stop applying blindly and start getting found.
