Get past applicant tracking systems with the right format and keywords.
Many companies use ATS to filter resumes. These tips help your resume get through.
Avoid tables, text boxes, and graphics. Use standard headings (Experience, Education, Skills) and clear section order.
Copy important terms from the job description (skills, tools, job title) and use them naturally in your resume.
When the job post allows it, PDF often preserves formatting best. Some ATS prefer .docx—check the instructions.
