An ATS is an online software program that most companies rely on to screen resumes and cover letters for suitability to a job opening. They scan your documents for keywords, phrases and experiences that match the job description’s requirements.

The ATS then scores your resume and cover letter according to keyword matches and either passes you up to the recruiter or hiring manager, or automatically terminates your application before human eyes see your resume.

Here at Hloom, it’s our standard to test all our templates to ensure they are ATS-friendly. You can rest assured that your resume is optimized to make it through an ATS scan and give you a better chance of making it to a hiring manager.

A resume example is a tool you can use to see how other people have chosen to style and format their resumes so that you can understand the best way to do it yourself.

You can also learn how other job seekers have used certain phrasing on their resumes and adapt this wording to fit your situation.

Use examples to see what you like and don’t like. Then make decisions about how you want your resume to look. Hloom has hundreds of up-to-date resume examples.

Recruiters are familiar with and prefer these popular resume formats:

1. Chronological: The most common format, this layout prioritizes your past employment and suits job seekers with over 10 years of experience and evident career growth through promotions and increased responsibilities.
2. Functional: Known as the skills-based resume, this layout suits job seekers with strong technical knowledge but unconventional employment such as career changers, contractors, freelancers, job re-entrants, and job hoppers.
3. Combination: Also known as the hybrid resume, this layout combines the strengths of the previous two formats to elevate the skills and experience of less experienced job seekers and recent graduates.
