What is an Applicant Tracking System?

Understanding the technology that screens your resume

The Problem

Over 75% of large companies use Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) to automatically screen resumes before a human ever sees them. These systems scan for specific keywords, qualifications, and formatting.

Many qualified candidates are rejected by ATS
Missing keywords = automatic rejection
Poor formatting can confuse ATS parsers
You never know why you were filtered out
