Frequently Asked Questions

How do ATS systems actually work?
Most ATS (Workday, Greenhouse, Lever) score on keyword match, role-title similarity, years of experience pattern. They don't read like humans — keywords from the job description must literally appear.
Should I keyword-stuff?
No. Modern ATS detect stuffing. Use keywords naturally in context. Aim for 65-80% overlap with job description, integrated into actual experience descriptions.
Which keywords matter most?
Hard skills (specific tools, languages, certifications) > soft skills > responsibilities. Tools name-drop wins more than "team player".
