I don't know anything that is for sure to help other then just putting in key words that align with the jobs your pursuing. I would say ATS checker websites but I don't know any creditable ones and used it like once.
The black hole feeling is real lately. Sometimes you nail a job posting and still never hear back, which is just brutal.
I started tailoring my resumes line by line for each role, but honestly, tools like ResumeJudge, Jobscan, and Enhancv helped me figure out which keywords and formatting actually matter for ATS. Results didn't change until I got super granular - every word seemed to count.
Quick tip: Watch for weird formatting - tables, fancy headers, or icons can ruin your chances. It's annoying, but stripping it down to basics was a game-changer for me.
What type of roles are you targeting? Some industries use stricter ATS filters than others. Curious if you've noticed any patterns yet.
