Resume Red Flags: What Triggers the Disqualification Bot

Sometimes it's not what's in your resume, but how it's presented that causes the rejection. The "Disqualification Bot" is programmed to flag specific errors that make your document unreadable or untrustworthy.

Formatting Fatalities

Using images for text, fancy non-standard fonts, or complex table nesting can break an ATS parser. If the bot can't read the text, it assumes there is nothing worth reading.

The Keyword Trap

Over-optimization can also be a red flag. If your resume contains 100% of the job description's text, it will likely be flagged for manual review (and then rejected for deception).

Avoid the traps. Use this website to make your resumes betterand ensure your formatting is 100% ATS-compliant and professionally vetted.
