Test my resume

Use one column so recruiter titles, dates, credentials, and bullets parse cleanly.

Keep section names standard: Professional Summary, Core Competencies, Professional Experience, Education, Certifications.

Choose visual polish through spacing and restrained accents, not tables or graphics that can hide keywords.

Name the ATS (Greenhouse, Lever, Workday) and sourcing tools you used.

Quantify: roles filled, time-to-fill, offer-accept rate, pipeline built.

Match the focus: technical, executive, high-volume, or agency recruiting.
