Jobscan's resume scanner can detect formatting errors that make your resume hard to understand for different Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS). Here are some tips on how to make an ATS-friendly resume:
1. **Tailor Your Resume**: Match your resume keywords to skills found in the job description.
2. **Use Long-Form and Acronym Versions of Keywords**: This will help your resume pass through ATS filters more easily.
3. **Upload in Docx Format**: Some ATS systems parse.docx resumes more accurately than PDFs. Unless the job posting requests a PDF, upload your resume in.docx format.
4. **Check for Formatting Errors**: Jobscan's scanner will identify any formatting issues that might hinder ATS readability.
5. **Optimize Your Resume**: Jobscan provides personalized suggestions based on the job description, helping you optimize your resume for maximum ATS match rates.
By following these tips and using tools like Jobscan, you can significantly improve your chances of getting past ATS and landing more interviews.
