How to Write an ATS-Friendly Resume (With 20 Free Templates)

Why you need an ATS-friendly resume

An expertly written resume complete with a sleek design and optimized resume keywords could still fall short if the formatting isn’t ATS compliant.

When you upload your resume into an ATS as part of your job application, the ATS then parses out the text of your resume to make it searchable for a recruiter or import the information into a digital candidate profile. If an ATS can’t accurately parse your resume, your chances of getting picked for an interview are low– even if you’re perfectly qualified.

What is an applicant tracking system?

An applicant tracking system — or ATS, for short — is a type of software used by recruiters and employers during the hiring process to collect, sort, scan, and rank the job applications they receive for their open positions.

How do applicant tracking systems (ATS) work?

Applicant tracking systems act as electronic gatekeepers for employers and hiring managers. The ATS parses a resume's content into categories and then scans it for specific keywords to determine if the job application should be passed along to the recruiter.

How to write an ATS-friendly resume

To determine what makes an ATS-friendly resume, TopResume analyzed 1,000 resumes from professionals across the U.S.  with at least eight years of experience to identify the most common resume mistakes that will cause an applicant tracking system to toss an application.

Your Approach to Hiring Is All Wrong. Outsourcing and algorithms won’t get you the people you need.”

  https://hbr.org/2019/05/your-approach-to-hiring-is-all-wrong

“Businesses have never done as much hiring as they do today and have never done a worse job of it, says Peter Cappelli of Wharton. Much of the process is outsourced to companies such as Randstad, Manpower, and Adecco, which in turn use subcontractors to scour LinkedIn and social media for potential candidates. When applications come—always electronically—software sifts through them for key words that hiring managers want to see. Vendors offer an array of smart-sounding tools that claim to predict who will be a good hire—but whether they produce satisfactory results is unknown. Cappelli explores what’s wrong with today’s recruiting and hiring and how to fix it.”

2. Use a template for your resume. No need to flounder around by yourself, when you can google a template. Include some details that are flattering to you

3. Use key words (hopefully the same key words as in the job you are applying. Resumes are reviewed and scanned by computer programs, prior to getting to a hiring manager.

4. Include shortened executive type summary of skills and benefits of hiring you. This will be read by the hiring manager. Remember you only have 30-45 seconds to make an impact.
