See What Recruiters See

List programming languages (Python, R, SQL), ML frameworks (TensorFlow, PyTorch, scikit-learn, XGBoost), data tools (Spark, Hadoop, pandas, NumPy), visualization libraries (Matplotlib, Seaborn, Plotly), and cloud platforms (AWS SageMaker, GCP AI Platform, Azure ML). Organize skills into clear categories. Use industry-standard terminology that ATS parsers recognize, avoiding informal abbreviations.

Include specific metrics for each model: accuracy, precision, recall, F1 score, AUC-ROC, RMSE, or MAE depending on the problem type. Pair technical metrics with business outcomes: "Built fraud detection model with 94% accuracy, reducing fraudulent transactions by 37% and saving $1.2M annually." Always connect model performance to tangible business value that hiring managers understand.

Translate technical work into business outcomes: revenue generated, costs reduced, efficiency gained, or decisions influenced. Examples: "Recommendation engine drove $2.3M revenue uplift," "Churn prediction model enabled proactive retention saving $800K ARR," "Demand forecasting reduced inventory costs by 20%." Hiring managers and ATS systems both value quantified business results alongside technical achievements.

Use simple formatting with standard section headings, a dedicated technical skills section with specific tool names, and bullet points for experience. Include keywords from job descriptions: machine learning, deep learning, NLP, computer vision, statistical modeling, A/B testing, Python, SQL, TensorFlow, PyTorch. Avoid complex layouts, tables, or graphics that confuse ATS parsers. Ensure both technical depth and business context are present.

Structure each project with four elements: the business problem, your analytical approach, the tech stack used, and measurable results. Example: "Developed customer segmentation model using Python and K-Means clustering on 500K records, identifying 4 high-value segments that informed targeted marketing campaigns, increasing conversion by 28%." This format satisfies both ATS keyword scanning and human reviewers.
