Can a recruiter kindly walk me through how an Applicant Tracking System works?
I’ve been applying for positions that I’m competent at, and tailoring my resume but I cannot seem to get any interview.

I would sincerely appreciate if HRs in the house explain how ATS works and how to crack it to successfully land interviews.

There isn't a surefire way to explain it because an ATS will be configured to a companies preference and individual recruiting process. People have been playing up the ATS ability, it really is a platform that we use to house job requisitions and candidate profiles that we can also use as a database to find former applicants who may be a fit for additional roles and contact them in bulk or individually via text or email.

Yes, there are programs that you can integrate with an ATS that will "rank" candidates based on common keywords in the resume and job description, but in the end, it is still a real person who is reviewing resumes, determining who to contact for next steps and manually moving people from new/applied to review to interview, etc.

At what point in the application process are you getting hung up at? You might want to upload your resume here for some advice, or you can DM me and I would be happy to take a look at it.
