EP 26. Your Resume Isn’t Bad — It’s Invisible: How ATS Really Ranks Candidates (EP 2 of 5 Mini Series)

Season 1 Episode 26

If you’re qualified for jobs but not getting interviews, your resume may not be bad — it may be invisible.

In this episode, career and salary negotiation coach Evie explains how Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) actually rank candidates and why many strong resumes never surface to recruiters.

You’ll learn the difference between resume rejection and resume invisibility, how ATS assigns relevance scores, and why keyword alignment, job titles, and quantified impact matter more than most job seekers realize.

This episode is part 2 of a 5-part mini-series called Why Your Resume Isn’t Getting Seen (And How to Fix It), where we break down why resumes get overlooked and how to fix it.

In this episode, we cover:

  • How ATS really ranks resumes
  • Why resumes aren’t rejected — they’re buried
  • What ATS looks for vs what it ignores
  • Why “good resumes” still fail ATS screening
  • How resume invisibility impacts confidence and salary decisions
  • What to focus on to increase resume visibility
