- Only include keywords that reflect real skills and experience — honesty beats keyword stuffing.
- Mirror the exact wording of the job description when it matches your background.
- Spell out acronyms at least once (e.g. "Search Engine Optimization (SEO)") so the ATS catches both forms.
- Put your strongest keywords in your skills section and in your most recent role.
