How Can I Make My Resume ATS-Friendly?

"An ATS-friendly resume is a document formatted specifically to be parsed, read, and ranked easily by Applicant Tracking System software used by employers."

1. Avoid Fancy Resume Designs. Use a clean, straightforward format with white background.

2. Use a professional and traditional font like Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, Verdana, Times New Roman.

3. Avoid images and graphics or complex layouts that might not translate properly on different devices.

4. Use standard resume section headings. Standard resume section headings include contact information, work experience, skills, core competencies and Resume summary or objective.

5. Use keywords and phrases from the job descriptions. For example: complex projects, customer satisfaction, project planning, stakeholder communication, cross-functional teams management, strict deadlines, budget constraints, etc.

6. Match keywords to your experiences. Identify relevant keywords from a job description or desired field and then carefully include those words and phrases into your resume, cover letter or online profile to highlight the specific skills and experiences that are necessary for the job requirements.

7. List skills in bullet points. Skills may include Management, Communication, Leadership, Problem Solving, Time Management, Active Listening, Computer Proficiency, Creativity, etc.

8. Mention your present and past jobs details clearly. Remember to include your designations, job durations, etc. Describe your key responsibilities under each job in a paragraph style without the use of any table or complex formatting.
