Description

Almost every jobseeker has experienced it---You apply for a job and never hear anything, or your application is rejected immediately with a generic message, such as "After examining your resume carefully, we have decided to proceed with other candidates."

Your application went into the black hole. No person ever looked it. It was filtered out by a software program.

Join us for a discussion about Applicant Tracking Software (ATS)--the programs that most companies use to evaluate, score, and filter resumes.

We'll explain how they work; what they accept; what they reject; and most importantly, what you need to do to get your resume through the blackhole; so, it can be read by an actual human being.
