All of the Job-seeker In their job search, may or may not
heard about the term "ATS" Resume writing. Everyone wants
to create a Professional resume or Best Resume and stand out. For that, some
use Resume Builder or Ready-made Resume Templates, but let me tell you
something - If you are applying for a job in big companies, where there are a
lot of application for a single job post, then there are almost 99% chances
that companies will be using the resume ranking software which will
automatically match the best resume and rank them so that recruiters don't have
to manually read all resumes.
Now the Big Question, What does this has to do with ATS

is not well structured or in a good format, then the softwares that companies
use for ranking resumes will not be able to read your resume correctly, and

not be able to pass it and will be rejected.
