Chapter Meeting August 14, 2024 – Get that Interview! How to Beat the Dreaded Applicant Tracking System

Speaker: Jack Molisani

About the program

Have you been applying for jobs via company websites but not getting interviews? Chances are you are being weeded out incorrectly by the company’s applicant tracking system (ATS).

An ATS is a web-based job application platform that uses AI to rank how well it “thinks” you match the job for which you are applying. Make just one tiny mistake in your resume and boom! you are disqualified.

In this session, professional recruiter Jack Molisani will offer valuable advice for beating (and avoiding!) ATSs.

Want to get more interviews in your job search? Don’t miss this meeting!
