When you submit a job application online, your resume rarely lands directly on a hiring manager’s desk. Instead, it is ingested by an Applicant Tracking System (ATS) such as Taleo, Workday, iCIMS, or Greenhouse.
1. Parsing
The software converts your document into plaintext, categorizing data into fields: Name, Contact Information, Work Experience, Education, and Skills.
2. Keyword Matching
The ATS compares your text against keywords specified by the recruiter in the job posting, scoring resumes based on contextual match frequency.
3. Filtering & Ranking
Recruiters only review candidates whose resumes score above a designated threshold. Resumes with unreadable formats or missing critical skills are filtered out.
