How to get the most from the CV ATS Simple layout
- Mirror the keywords from the job description exactly: if the ad asks for 'Gestión de proyectos' or 'JavaScript', use those exact terms.
- Keep the bullet format clean: start each point with an action verb followed by the action taken and the quantifiable result.
- Avoid uncommon section headers; stick to standard terms like Experiencia laboral, Educación, and Competencias.
How to customize the CV ATS Simple template
- 1
Add your contact details and summary
Open CV ATS Simple in the builder and enter your contact details, target job title, and a concise 2–3 sentence summary aligned with corporate ats portals (workday, taleo) postings.
- 2
Prioritize measurable experience bullets
List recent roles in reverse-chronological order. Lead each bullet with a concrete action and outcome — scope, revenue, latency, patient load, or delivery metrics.
- 3
Align skills with the job description
Use the vacancy's names for skills and tools where they accurately describe your experience. Add evidence in your work history; repeating a term alone does not establish competence or guarantee a search match.
- 4
Verify reading order and export
Preview page breaks, then export the file type requested by the employer. Copy its text into a plain-text editor to check the order. The ATS Scanner provides a local checklist; Job Match compares your text with a specific posting.

Frequently asked questions
Practical details about formatting, ATS compatibility, and customizing the CV ATS Simple template.
Does this template guarantee 100% parsing by every ATS?
No template can guarantee 100% compatibility across all software because parsing depends on each employer's specific ATS platform, version, and custom parsing rules. However, CV ATS Simple follows strict best practices — single column, standard headings, and selectable text — to maximize extraction accuracy.
Can I use CV ATS Simple for jobs that don't use ATS?
Absolutely. Hiring managers appreciate clean, unpretentious resumes that make qualifications immediately visible without searching through complex design layouts.
Should I export in PDF or Word (.docx) for ATS portals?
Most modern ATS systems parse text-based PDFs accurately while preserving visual formatting for the human recruiter. If a job posting specifically requests Word (.docx), use the Word export option.
Is the CV ATS Simple template really ATS-friendly?
ATS products and employer configurations differ, so this template cannot guarantee parsing or screening results. Check the layout and exported text, use accurate role-specific content, and follow the employer's file instructions. Any compatibility percentage shown on this page is not an independent test by an ATS provider.
Can I download my resume as a PDF or Word file for free?
You can export a PDF, Microsoft Word (DOCX), or plain-text (TXT) file without a watermark. Review the downloaded file before sending it and follow the employer's requested file format. ATS products and employer settings differ, so no template or export can guarantee parsing in every system.
Is this resume template completely free?
The resume builder and PDF, DOCX, and TXT exports are available without payment or an account. Online AI or analysis tools may depend on service availability; see the Privacy Policy for details about how submitted information is processed.
Do I need to create an account to use this template?
No account is required to use the builder. Drafts are stored in your browser; some online features send submitted information to configured services for processing. See the Privacy Policy for details.
