Frequently Asked Questions

An Applicant Tracking System (ATS) is software used by employers to manage job applications. It helps sort, scan, and rank job applications based on how well they match the job requirements. Over 90% of large companies in Dubai and the UAE use ATS to screen resumes before they reach human recruiters.

Our ATS checker analyzes several key aspects of your resume:

  • File format and compatibility
  • Presence of standard section headings
  • Content structure and formatting
  • Use of tables, graphics, and special characters
  • Overall document organization

An ATS-friendly resume should have:

  • Clear section headings (e.g., Experience, Education, Skills)
  • Simple, standard fonts (Arial, Calibri, Times New Roman)
  • Basic formatting without tables or graphics
  • Proper file format (PDF is recommended)
  • Relevant keywords from the job description
  • Standard contact information section

Our ATS scoring system works as follows:

  • 90-100: Excellent - Highly ATS-friendly
  • 80-89: Good - Minor improvements needed
  • 70-79: Fair - Some improvements recommended
  • Below 70: Needs significant improvements

We recommend aiming for a score of at least 80 to ensure your resume gets past ATS systems.
