Platform intelligence
Which ATS do Project Manager employers use?
The platform shapes how your resume is parsed and ranked. Check yours against the exact system before you apply.
Greenhouse
The default at startups and scale-ups. No keyword auto-reject — but recruiters search the pool by skills and exact title, so surface with the right keywords.
Lever
Common at high-growth tech companies. Human-first like Greenhouse; be findable in sourcing, then win the review with quantified impact.
Ashby
Popular with modern startups. Parses links well — include GitHub/portfolio — and ranks you in recruiter search by skills.
Workday
The enterprise standard. Knockout questions and recruiter keyword search matter more than a hidden score — mirror the exact title.
iCIMS
Enterprise ATS with stricter keyword matching. Use the requisition's exact terminology and a clean single-column layout.
Taleo
The strictest legacy parser. Plain single-column text and exact-keyword matching are non-negotiable — tables break it.
