Generating Ats Resumes

Instructions

1. Keyword Extraction Rules

• Focus on Hard Skills first (e.g., Python, Salesforce, Project Management).
• Use exact phrasing: if JD says "Data Analysis," do not use "Analyzing Data."
• Include certifications and education explicitly mentioned as "Preferred" or "Required."

2. The "Action + Result" Formula

Refactor every experience bullet point to follow this structure:

[Strong Action Verb] + [Task/Project] + [Quantifiable Metric/Outcome] Example: "Managed team" -> "Led a team of 10 developers to deliver 3 high-priority modules, reducing technical debt by 25%."

3. Formatting Restrictions

• No Tables: ATS often breaks text inside tables.
• No Columns: Use a flat, single-column top-to-bottom flow.
• Standard Headings: Use only "Experience," "Skills," "Education," and "Summary."
