10 Tips to Build a Resume That Gets Results
Avoid the ampersand symbol
Write out "and" instead of using "&". ATS parsers can misread the symbol as "&" and corrupt your text, which breaks keyword matching and garbles your content.
Mirror the job posting keywords
Copy exact phrases from the job advertisement (e.g. "Results-Based Management", "GBA Plus") into your skills and experience. ATS systems rank candidates by keyword overlap with the posting.
Use standard section headings
Keep headings like "Work Experience", "Education", and "Skills". Creative labels such as "My Journey" confuse parsing software and cause sections to be skipped entirely.
Tailor for each specific role
Customize your summary and bullets for every application. A generic resume misses role-specific keywords and competencies that recruiters and algorithms screen for.
Quantify your achievements
Add numbers, budgets, and scope (e.g. "managed a $2.4M program serving 3,000 clients"). Measurable results stand out to human reviewers and demonstrate impact.
Use simple, parseable formatting
Avoid tables, columns, text boxes, headers/footers, and graphics. ATS engines read top-to-bottom, left-to-right - complex layouts scramble your content order.
Start bullets with strong action verbs
Lead with verbs like "Led", "Designed", "Implemented", "Analyzed". Passive phrasing weakens your profile and reduces the perceived strength of your contributions.
Keep it concise and relevant
Target 1-2 pages for most roles (federal resumes can run longer). Cut outdated or unrelated experience - every line should serve the target position.
Include a targeted headline
Add the exact job title you are applying for at the top. This signals focus to both ATS keyword scanners and recruiters skimming the first few seconds of your resume.
Proofread for errors and consistency
Spelling and date inconsistencies get flagged. Review dates, job titles, and acronyms - a single typo can drop you below the ATS screening threshold.
