CV360 - The Perfect CV?
Previously my CV for Timico scored 82% on the University of Hertfordshire ATS system. I will now attempt to improve my CV further, as I am suspicious that my application was declined due to Timico's ATS system. Any suggestions may help and therefore want to achieve the highest score possible.
I managed to score 98%, with the main problem being too little whitespace. Although my margins are quite narrow I feel as though I have added enough space between paragraphs. Therefore, I have decided that I am going to leave this aspect as it shouldn't affect the result of the ATS. Having whitespace is more useful when the CV passes the ATS and someone such as a hiring manager reads it.
The reason as to why I was suspicious that my CV did not pass Timico's ATS system was potentially due to their system being a tad outdated. I submitted a more creative CV with columns and indents which I learnt can through out parsing errors. I uploaded this same CV to CV360 after improvements were made and achieved 98%.
Therefore in my next post, I will show my creative CV and one which is more basic to not cause any errors.
