Job candidates are found through online applications, social media, and email referrals, and recruitment processes are completely digitized. With so many people scrambling to secure new jobs in a volatile labor market, it\u2019s more important than ever before to make sure you have an <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.livecareer.com\/resources\/resumes\/how-to\/write\/ai-friendly-resume-for-bots\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">AI-friendly resume<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. It\u2019s also key to make sure your online presence is helping you, not hurting you.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How can you craft a resume that beats the AI-powered Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) and impresses the people who might hire you? After all, resume screening using artificial intelligence isn\u2019t perfect. With so many people having to apply for new jobs these days, understanding how to write an ATS-friendly resume is extremely important. There are some important resume formatting guidelines to follow, and it\u2019s critical to prioritize career-specific keywords. The more straightforward and concise your resume can be, the easier it is for the bots to scan your resume and approve it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unfortunately, it only takes one minor error to disqualify you before a human even looks at your application. You want to make sure you don\u2019t ruin your chances by not complying with ATS requirements. You want to get your application past the bots and into the hands of the right human hiring managers as quickly as possible. At the end of the day, this technology isn\u2019t going anywhere, and now is the prime time to make sure you\u2019re prepared to make yourself as desirable of a candidate as possible.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The graphic below from <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.livecareer.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">LiveCareer<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> explains how to make it past the resume screening bots to give yourself the best chance at securing a job during the pandemic and beyond.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.careersingovernment.com\/tools\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/how-to-outsmart-ai-bots.png\" width=\"1732\" height=\"9243\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-36483 alignleft size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.careersingovernment.com\/tools\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/how-to-outsmart-ai-bots.png 1732w, https:\/\/www.careersingovernment.com\/tools\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/how-to-outsmart-ai-bots-1280x6831.png 1280w, https:\/\/www.careersingovernment.com\/tools\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/how-to-outsmart-ai-bots-980x5230.png 980w, https:\/\/www.careersingovernment.com\/tools\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/how-to-outsmart-ai-bots-480x2562.png 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) and (max-width: 1280px) 1280px, (min-width: 1281px) 1732px, 100vw\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.22&#8243; background_color=&#8221;#f7f7f4&#8243; custom_margin=&#8221;-87px||-257px|||&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px||175px||false|false&#8221;][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.4.1&#8243; background_color=&#8221;#f9f9f9&#8243; custom_margin=&#8221;53px||0px||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px|0px|0px|0px|false|false&#8221; global_module=&#8221;35977&#8243;][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;1_2,1_2&#8243; use_custom_gutter=&#8221;on&#8221; gutter_width=&#8221;1&#8243; make_equal=&#8221;on&#8221; column_padding_mobile=&#8221;on&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.4.1&#8243; background_size=&#8221;initial&#8221; background_position=&#8221;top_left&#8221; background_repeat=&#8221;repeat&#8221; width=&#8221;100%&#8221; max_width=&#8221;2560px&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px|0px|0px|0px||&#8221; use_custom_width=&#8221;on&#8221; custom_width_px=&#8221;780px&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.4.1&#8243; background_enable_image=&#8221;off&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;80px|5%|40px|5%|false|false&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.4.1&#8243; text_font=&#8221;PT Serif||||&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#363636&#8243; text_font_size=&#8221;36px&#8221; text_line_height=&#8221;1.2em&#8221; background_size=&#8221;initial&#8221; background_position=&#8221;top_left&#8221; background_repeat=&#8221;repeat&#8221; module_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||40px|||&#8221; text_font_size_tablet=&#8221;26&#8243; text_font_size_phone=&#8221;&#8221; text_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|tablet&#8221;]Want new articles before they get published?
