ATS Best Practices

5 rules that separate screened-in from screened-out

Single-column layout

ATS bots read top-to-bottom. Multi-column layouts confuse parsers and drop your skills section entirely.

Standard fonts only

Stick to Arial, Calibri, Garamond, or Georgia. Fancy fonts render as gibberish in most parsing engines.

Match the job keywords

Mirror the exact language from the job description. If they say 'project management,' don't write 'PM oversight.'

No tables, images, or headers

ATS strips headers, footers, and tables. Put your contact info and all content in the body of the document.

File format matters

Submit as .docx or plain-text whenever possible. PDFs with complex formatting can be parsed incorrectly.

Want a resume tailored to a specific job?

Paste any job description and Hiringbot will rewrite your resume with the exact keywords that ATS scanners are looking for.
