How to optimize your resume for the Applicant Tracking System (ATS)
Think the Applicant Tracking System (ATS) is just a robot rejecting your resume? It’s time to optimize your resume for the applicant tracking system. In this episode, we dive into what ATS really does and how it works behind the scenes. You’ll learn that while ATS does rank resumes, it doesn’t have the final say on who gets the interview—that’s up to humans.
Key tips include using a single-column resume to avoid confusing the system and skipping fancy graphics or charts. Instead, be clear about your skills and how you’ve used them in real life.
Another resume myth busted: your resume doesn’t need to be one page. The key takeaway is to always tailor your resume to the specific job you’re applying for by tweaking bullet points and emphasizing relevant experience. Get practical advice on how to optimize your resume for these systems and stand out to recruiters.
