The 5 things that silently fail your resume
Tables and columns
The #1 ATS killer. Two-column layouts get read left-to-right across both columns, scrambling your work history into nonsense.
Headers, footers & images
Contact details placed in the header region or inside images are invisible to most parsers — the recruiter can't call you if the ATS never extracted your phone number.
Fancy fonts & graphics
Skill bars, icons, and decorative fonts render as garbage characters. What looks impressive to you looks like corrupted data to the ATS.
Wrong keywords
You wrote 'built dashboards'; the JD says 'Power BI'. ATS matches literal terms — describing the same skill in different words scores zero.
Scanned PDFs
A photo or scan of your resume contains no extractable text at all. ATS score: zero, guaranteed rejection.

Frequently asked questions
What is an ATS score?
An ATS (Applicant Tracking System) score measures how well screening software can read and rank your resume. It combines parse-ability (can the software extract your details?) with keyword relevance (does your resume contain the terms recruiters search for?). CVScan scores this 0–100.
How do I check my ATS score for free?
Upload your resume (PDF or DOCX) to CVScan. In about 60 seconds you get your ATS score, every missing keyword for your role, and a list of formatting elements that are breaking the parser. The check is completely free with no sign-up.
Which companies in India use ATS?
Nearly all large employers: TCS, Infosys, Wipro, Accenture, Cognizant, Capgemini, Deloitte, Amazon India, Flipkart, and every company hiring through Naukri or LinkedIn. If you're applying online, an ATS almost certainly processes your resume first.
Is a resume that looks good also ATS-friendly?
Often the opposite. Visually rich resumes with columns, colors, icons, and skill graphs are the ones ATS parsers fail hardest on. The best-performing format is a clean single-column layout with standard section names — which CVScan's ₹10 fix generates for you.
Can I improve my ATS score without rewriting my resume?
Usually yes. The two highest-impact fixes are converting to a single-column ATS-safe layout and adding the exact keywords from your target role. CVScan does both automatically and emails you the fixed PDF and DOCX for ₹10 — one time, no subscription.
