I've been applying for internships for the past 2 weeks. Just wanted to know if I'm getting it right, do companies use ATS to evaluate and reject candidates?

I have been using my custom resume for getting a product design internship, but I have had zero luck so far. Should I make an ATS one?  

Some help would be appreciated :)

Welcome to Indian Startups's Private Community

I've been applying for Senior Product Manager jobs and have got experience of 6 years as a developer once and as Product Manager in B2B and B2C sectors. 
I always get automated responses from companies. I'm starting to wonder if that's because of low ATS scores or something else which is wrong with the Resume.

How important is the ATS score for shortlisting of Resume?

Welcome to Business Roles's Private Community

Wherever I apply, I get a response that they are moving ahead with some other candidate, I don't even get a call for an interview, even though the job description matches my profile. How are you getting the calls?

Operations Manager

I have been applying for roles since 2 months, with my custom made resume format. Haven't received any calls at all. I have used this format previously a couple of years ago, and I received a decent amount of calls in a months time.
Have the whole recruiting industry moved to ATS? Should I consider building a more ATS friendly resume?

ATS auto rejects the manager's resume. Is the dependency of ATS a lot more than needed? Is this happening only in India or even globally?

Hello Fine Viners- it's been 2 months now that I am actively looking for a job change. Have faced instances where the HR calls me regarding the scheduling of the interview, but vo hota hi nahi hai! Even if the interview is scheduled, I don't get an update post that call. I have rejected 2 offers (there are solid reasons to do so) and have been rejected from 2 :(

LinkedIn and IIMjobs are on a constant battle on who will give me the most rejection emails or updates. 

Anyways, I am getting a bit worried lately and wanted to know from ya'll, IS HIRING EVEN HAPPENING!? 

In case your answer to the above question is YES, then please mention your company name and mode of working (wfh, wfo or hybrid). Referral are also welcomed.

Viners- Who on Earth is Hiring??

I have been working in HRTech space for quite a few years now and never saw a guy whose application didn't get into ATS because his/her resume was not compliant. 

Generally ATS uses third party service to generate matching scores which takes keywords from your resume and job description, however it does not impact your resume visibility.

Many companies and freelancers monetize on this vulnerability which is totally sham!

ATS compliant resume is a SCAM!

Folks who are giving interviews these days, which companies are you interviewing for ?

Also what is the method of getting the interview ? Did recruiter reach out to you on LinkedIn, or you applied on a company portal and got the call or did you ask for a referral ?

Hi Grapeviners, I have ten years of work ex in performance marketing and CRM. I started job search actively from Feb 15 this year and landed first interview today. 

How bad is the market out there. I usually get hired with in 30 job applications, also I apply to the role only if 70% and above role match with my previous experience also use referrals when available.

Also please roast my resume https://stonedmind.tiiny.site/ have redacted wherever necessary to stay anonymous as possible. For the first time in my career I have a doubt that my resume might not be upto the mark

Please let me know your views in the comments. Any help is appreciated.

To land 1 interview it took 60 job applications

Being a tier 3 college grad, It took me 700 applications to get 25 shortlists, and only 7 interview calls. Converted all of them.

Growth Manager

I work in a startup, been here for around 3 yrs. I have been applying continuously for a long time and am not even getting an interview call (Even with referrals sometimes)...
Is it my resume? But ATS parses it just fine? Maybe I have too much written in it.
I don't have a flashy college, company. That clearly hurts my chances, but what could I do now? 

I'm working on random projects I find interesting on the side, and thinking of posting some on linkedin for now. What else do you think I should do?

Any leads on legit ATS cracking resume service?

Hey folks,
In between my serious job hunts,not getting any calls. I seriously wanted to get my resume reviewed. Plz have a look into my resume and pour your honest comments

Open for roasting! Thanks

Will you hire me? Whats your impression on my resume?

I am a computer engineering student from a tier 3 college in Pune. Now that I am in the last couple of months of my 6th semester multiple companies have come to our campus but I haven't gotten an internship. How do i search for internships off campus?
Are there any tips from some experienced people like what do companies look at when giving out internships. Since last month I started applying off campus using linkedin and other websites but I am not getting any callbacks for interviews or even online tests.
Previously I haven't done any internships but have done projects which I have out on my resume.

Please forgive me if the format of this post is wrong, vague or broad. I am writing a grapevine post for the first time.

How to search for software internships

When you have an open position and you start getting tons of resumes,how do you shortlist.? How much time you take to read ? what is that you look into resume ??

I

How do you shortlist resumes.?

Would like someone to review my resume from ATS perspective. I’m also looking out for jobs. Hope to get any leads too.

So I have been unemployed for ~2 months now and wanting to do something on my own that is fun, fulfilling and has a scope for monetization

I realised during my job hunt that most recruiters (3P) are clueless about the hiring requirements of the job and usually cold call/ randomly generate leads through basic LinkedIn search. Most of the folks eventually don't hear from them later because they profile didn't fit the need( obviously!)

While not doubting their skills, I realised head hunting could be much more targeted through better classification of JDs and candidates and recruiters could save time both for them and candidates through better screening while improving conversions...

I'm planning to build a marketplace of sorts aimed at matching jr to mid level tech talent  with JDs( you know how generic and open ended they can be!)
I want to start this entire service as free for the current yr at least given the job scenario and later monetize through recruiters and TAs

I have mostly figured out most of the workflows and can get the MVP ready in a couple of days worth of dev work but what I'm skeptical is whether candidates might feel data security as an issue( something that leads to a shrinking candidate pool to pick from)

Feel free to leave your thoughts/ critiques/ feedbacks; good or bad both are welcome

Thanks for your time and double thanks if you took time to comment :)
