Not getting responses to job applications? Your resume might be getting filtered out by Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS).
These systems scan resumes for keywords and relevant info before recruiters see them.
Avoid complex formatting like Canva and PDFs; use simple Word documents for better ATS compatibility.
An effective resume aligns your skills with the goals of the role, showcasing how you can solve the company's problems.
Networking doesn’t have to be intimidating—start by commenting on LinkedIn posts to build connections that could lead to
job referrals, bypassing the ATS.
Highlight your achievements confidently and focus on your recent experience to stand out in today’s job market.
