ATS notes for the Split Header layout

This is a single-column family, the layout that reads in the simplest order.

  • Single column below the header in every template of the family.
  • Name and contact share one header row. Header regions are where some parsers drop content, so check in the ATS view that your email and phone number were read.

The only way to know what a parser reads from your own file is to look: export it, then run it through the ATS resume checker.
