Highest-impact fixes

1. Single-column, plain layout — no columns, tables, text boxes, sidebars or headers/footersAnything placed in a header, footer, sidebar, table or image is frequently discarded entirely by the parser.
2. The top third wins: name, city and work pattern, a one-line title mirroring the target job, three to four lines of evidenceAbove the fold you need evidence, not adjectives — and a professional title worded like the job you want.
3. The six to ten repeated terms from the advert appear naturally where they are trueMatching in 2026 is semantic, but the employer's own vocabulary is still safest. Never use white text or hidden keyword blocks — it is an instant reject.
4. Bullets follow action + scope + result + timeframe'Rebuilt supplier onboarding across 3 sites, cutting lead time from 14 to 6 days in 9 months' beats 'responsible for supplier onboarding'.
5. Numbers throughout — value, volume, percentage, headcount or geographyNumbers survive AI summarisation, and without scale a reader cannot place you. If you have no hard number use frequency, scale or comparison. Never claim a number you cannot explain in interview.
