Instantly score your CV or cover letter against Applicant Tracking System (ATS) best practices.

An Applicant Tracking System (ATS) is a specialised software application used by most large and medium-sized companies to manage their high-volume recruitment processes. Its primary function is to act as a digital filter, collecting, scanning, and automatically ranking candidate documents like CVs (curriculum vitae) and cover letters before they ever reach a human recruiter.

The system screens applications for specific criteria, such as required keywords, proper formatting, and work experience, allowing organisations to efficiently narrow down a large applicant pool to only the most qualified candidates, saving significant time and resources in the initial screening phase.
