Invest in your future – Read this blog to learn everything you need to know about Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) and how to “Beat the Bots”

Your resume is being read by a computer known as the ATS. Short and simple but true.

We all know what it’s like to find the dream job, apply with your resume and cover letter, confident that you will definitely be called in for an interview and BOOM you receive the ‘thanks but no thanks’ email. What the?

An ATS is a type of software used by recruiters and employers during the hiring process to shortlist, scan, and rank the job applications within seconds before a human is then provided with a shortlist of suitable candidates.

Applicant tracking systems act as an electronic gatekeeper for an employer. Unfortunately, that means if a resume is not written and formatted with the applicant tracking system in mind, a qualified candidate can be easily be missed.

So what to do
