Resume PDF tips
- Name the file well: e.g.
Priya-Sharma-Resume.pdf, notfinal_v3.pdf. - Keep it simple for ATS: applicant tracking systems read simple single-column layouts best. Avoid text boxes and images of text.
- Need selectable text? Many ATS systems read the text in your PDF. For the most reliable result, export from Word with “File › Save as › PDF” — or use this tool for a quick, clean copy.
- Size limits: if a portal rejects large files, use compress PDF to 1 MB.
