Using the built-in ATS check

My score is high but I'm still not getting interviews. Why?

Because the score measures structure and completeness, not whether your experience matches the jobs or how convincing your content is. Many other factors affect interview invitations.

Things to review:

  • Are you applying for roles where you meet the main requirements?
  • Does the top third of your resume show fit for each job within a quick glance?
  • Do your bullets show results, or only duties?
  • Are you answering screening questions fully?
  • Are you applying early enough and following each application's instructions?

Ask someone in your target field to review your resume against a real advert. Their feedback on content is often more valuable than any score. It also helps to track your applications, so you can see whether certain types of roles respond better than others and adjust your focus.
