How to write a UK CV that beats the ATS system
When applying for jobs in the UK, your CV must pass through an Applicant Tracking System (ATS) before a human ever reads it. The ATS scans for keywords, specific formatting, and clear headings.
To beat it, you should avoid complex tables, columns, or graphics. Stick to a clean, single-column layout using standard fonts like Arial or Calibri.
Top Keywords to Include
- Project Management
- Data Analysis
- Stakeholder Engagement
Ensure your job titles match the industry standard in the UK. A "Marketing Executive" in Kenya might translate to a different level in London, so research the market.
