Master the ATS Filter

The most important step in readiness isn't polishing your interview answers—it's ensuring your resume gets seen in the first place. Today, up to 75% of job applications are filtered by robots (Applicant Tracking Systems, or ATS) before a human ever sees them.

Your Tip: Treat your resume like a blueprint, not a history report. Before applying, copy the specific keywords and core skills directly from the job description and weave them naturally into your resume. Use simple, standard fonts and headings (no fancy columns or graphics). Your readiness goal is not just to look good, but to be perfectly readable and keyword-matched to beat the filter.
