ATS tips
What makes a CV ATS-friendly?
An ATS-friendly CV is not about tricks. It is about clean structure, honest keywords, readable formatting, and enough detail for recruiters to understand your fit.
- Use a simple structure with profile, skills, experience, education, and contact details.
- Match truthful keywords from the job advert, especially role title, tools, industries, and core skills.
- Add measurable outcomes where possible, such as customers supported, projects delivered, revenue handled, or response times improved.
- Export a clean, readable CV that recruiters can scan quickly after the ATS has parsed it.
