What is an ATS system?
ATS (Applicant Tracking System) is the software companies use to manage applications. Before a recruiter sees your CV, the ATS automatically analyses it and decides if it's relevant for the role. If your CV isn't formatted correctly or doesn't contain the right keywords, it's filtered out and never read by a person.
Common mistakes that block your CV in ATS systems
- Tables and columns — most ATS systems can't read complex formatting
- Headers and footers — critical information like contact details can be ignored
- Images and icons — skills graphics and photos are invisible to ATS
- Missing keywords — if your CV doesn't use terms from the job advert, it's discarded
- Wrong file format — some ATS struggle with DOCX; PDF is generally safer
