ATS-friendly resume: what it means (and what it doesn't)

ATS-friendly resumes are easy for systems and recruiters to scan: clear headings, readable structure, and relevant keywords used naturally.

✅ ATS likes

  • Clear section headings (Experience, Education, Skills)
  • Standard fonts and readable formatting
  • Keywords that match your real experience
  • Consistent date formats

❌ ATS doesn't like

  • Complex tables and text boxes
  • Graphics, charts, or progress bars
  • Unusual fonts or heavy formatting
  • Keyword stuffing (looks fake)

Focus on clarity + impact. An ATS-friendly resume is also a recruiter-friendly resume.

💡 Pro tip: Want to check if your resume passes ATS? Use our ATS Resume Checker to scan for formatting issues and keyword gaps.

Why build a resume in Markdown?

Markdown makes editing fast and consistent. It's great for version control, quick updates, and clean exports—especially when you need multiple tailored versions for different jobs.

  • Faster editing: No fighting with Word formatting—just write
  • Better version control: Track changes easily with Git or simple text diffs
  • More control: Consistent formatting across all exports
  • Stable exports: PDF and Word exports look exactly how you expect

You don't have to use Markdown—plain text works too. But if you're technical or want more control, Markdown is a game-changer.

Do I need a template?
No—you can paste your existing resume and use AI to improve it. Templates just make it faster to start with a professional, ATS-friendly layout.

Will AI make my resume sound robotic?
No. Our AI suggests improvements based on your real experience—you stay in control. You can accept, edit, or ignore any suggestion. The goal is to make your writing clearer and more impactful, not to replace your voice.
