Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) are used by 99% of Fortune 500 companies. Here's how to optimize your resume:

Format Tips:

• Stick to simple formatting - no tables, columns, or graphics
• Save as PDF unless specifically asked for .docx

Content Tips:

• Include keywords from the job description naturally
• Quantify achievements with numbers and percentages
• Use action verbs to start bullet points

What to Avoid:

• Headers and footers (ATS often can't read them)
• Images, logos, or icons
• Unusual fonts
