If you want to get a call for an interview, your CV has to be ATS friendly. Here’s 6 small tips to help you
For those that don't know how recruiters uses ATS to get candidates, why you submit your CV and no one gets back to you. Let me educate you on that.

Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) have become a key part of the recruitment process, which can sometimes make it feel like your CV disappears into a black hole.
Here's some insight into how ATS works and why you may not hear back:

How ATS Works
Recruiters use ATS software to screen all incoming CVs/resumes when a role opens up. This automates and speeds up parts of the hiring process.

- These systems scan your CV looking for relevant keywords, skills, qualifications etc. to match the job description. It scores and ranks applications.

- If your CV makes it past this initial screening stage, it gets passed to the recruiters and hiring managers to review. That means, if your CV do no pass this stage, the recruiters won't even see your CV, you have lost your fighting chance.

*Why You May Not Hear Back*
- Unfortunately, over 75% of candidates don't make it through the ATS screening stage. If relevant data is missing from your CV, you can receive an instant rejection.

*Tips to Beat ATS*
- Study the job
description and identify key requirements. Tailor your CV using the same keywords and terminology.
- Carefully format your CV. Use simple, consistent formatting without complex tables or columns, colors, pictures, personal information like age, local government, marital status, s*x, etc. *This can confuse ATS software.*

*Very crucial*
- Submit your CV in .doc or .txt format, not PDF which can scramble layouts making data extraction difficult.

It can be disheartening not hearing back after an application. This is why I am here, to help you understanding how ATS software filters CVs can help you tweak your CV to pass those crucial first stages.
Hoping these insights on modern recruitment practices are helpful!
