Warning: Resumes that are not electronically compatible with recruiter software lose interviews and block jobs!

Most resumes are dinosaurs trying to get around in a space-age electronic world.

Back in the 1990s, loading your resume with photos, fancy fonts and logos, using clever layouts, and downloading sophisticated resume templates and resume building formats was a great way to make your resume visually more attractive. It made you stand out from the rest of the resumes in the then-manageable stack.

Unfortunately, the manageable stack is now an electronic deluge! Lots has changed over the past few years. These piles of hand-delivered resumes being carefully reviewed by recruiters and hiring managers simply don't exist anymore. Parsing engines, not people, decide which resume makes the first cut. Only a very few end up getting onto a recruiter's or hiring manager's PC. Even if you still decide to "snail mail" your resume there is always a clerical assistant to scan it into the parsing system. So spending hours choosing the perfect font, professional color scheme, and proper indentation impresses no one, and can even work against you.

Make sure you have a resume that gets matched and read by hiring managers.

You want a resume that ensures that you get past the parsing engines and that your best skills stand out in stage one of the electronic screening process. JobSmart Resume software optimizes the layout, structure, and text of your resume to be 100% compatible with the resume reading parsing engines.

It is guaranteed to improve your resume, get you past the electronic gatekeeper screening, and have your most relevant skills and knowledge jump off the page. Now recruiters can quickly move you past time-consuming "qualification" phone calls that slow down the interview process - and can cost you jobs.
