Frequently asked questions
What is an ATS?
An Applicant Tracking System is software employers use to parse, filter, and rank resumes before a recruiter reviews them. A resume that parses poorly can be rejected automatically.
How do I make my resume ATS-friendly?
Use a clean single-column layout, standard section headings, real text (not images), and the keywords from the job description. ResumeBoost flags exactly where you fall short.
