Are Kickresume templates ATS-friendly?

All our templates are friendly. ATS friendly.

All of our resume templates are ATS compatible, but some are more compatible than others. We labeled these with a badge (see screenshot).

However, ATS compatibility also depends on the content of your resume. You can use our ATS checker. It's a tool that tells you if your resume meets all ATS criteria.

Tips how to get past ATS:

  • Use verbal ratings of skills instead of graphs.

  • Use keywords from the job description (especially in your Skills section).

  • Make sure the city you listed on your resume is the same as the city in the job posting (most companies want to hire locally).

  • In the Education section, include the full name of the school together with its abbreviation (ATS normally uses school rankings to assess candidates).

  • Keep your resume clear and logical so an ATS easily find the details it scans for.
