Best Practices for ATS-Friendly Resumes#
Use Standard Section Headings#
ATS systems look for standard headings:
- Professional Summary (not “About Me”)
- Work Experience (not “Career History”)
- Skills (not “Expertise”)
- Education
- Certifications
Include Quantifiable Achievements#
Use numbers to demonstrate impact:
- “Reduced deployment time by 60%”
- “Managed $2M annual budget”
- “Led team of 8 engineers”
Match Job Description Keywords#
Include relevant keywords from the job posting in your skills and experience sections. Our keyword match feature helps you identify gaps.
Keep Formatting Simple#
For maximum ATS compatibility:
- Use standard fonts
- Avoid tables and columns (in ATS mode)
- No images or graphics
- Consistent bullet points
FAQ#
Is my resume data secure?#
Yes. All processing happens in your browser using JavaScript. Your resume data is stored in localStorage on your device only. Nothing is sent to any server.
How do I export my resume?#
Click “Export PDF” in the Review step. This uses your browser’s built-in print dialog. Choose “Save as PDF” to create your resume file.
Can I save my progress?#
Yes. Your resume is automatically saved to your browser’s localStorage. You can close the page and return later to continue editing.
What’s ATS mode?#
ATS (Applicant Tracking System) mode renders your resume in a single-column, minimal format that’s optimized for automated parsing. Keep this ON when applying to jobs that use ATS screening.
Can I customize the design?#
Yes! In the Customize step, you can adjust:
- Colors and accent
- Font sizes
