🚦 Building an ATS-Friendly Resume: Get Seen, Get Interviews!
Tired of sending your resume into a black hole? It might be the ATS (Applicant Tracking System) blocking your shot.
Here’s how to beat the bots and get noticed:
1ļøāƒ£ Keep It Simple:
Use a clean format—no tables, fancy graphics, or text boxes. Stick to standard fonts (Arial, Calibri, Times New Roman).
2ļøāƒ£ Use Keywords:
Scan the job description for must-have skills and requirements. Mirror those exact keywords in your resume—especially in your summary, skills, and experience sections.
3ļøāƒ£ Standard Headings:
Label sections as ā€œExperience,ā€ ā€œEducation,ā€ ā€œSkills,ā€ etc. ATS loves clear, common titles.
4ļøāƒ£ Save as PDF or .docx:
Unless the posting says otherwise, these formats are safest for ATS.
5ļøāƒ£ Proofread:
Typos can confuse the system and cost you interviews.
Action Step:
Take one job you want. Highlight keywords in the description. Update your resume with those words, and check your format for simplicity.
