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
  • Section order
  • Layout (when ATS mode is off)
  • Spacing and padding
