So of course, Michael is an amazing repository of knowledge of all things relating to the automation of recruitment and selection of candidates, and in fact both the technological and humanistic side of the entire recruitment and selection process.\nIf you are interested to know what happens to your job application once you submit it, you have to listen to this episode! Michael explains how resumes are short-listed automatically, as well as how the automation is actually put in place by humans making decisions about specific keywords which may or may not be on your application.\nMichael details the things that will compromise your job application being read properly by a machine, making this episode one of the most important conversations I\u2019ve had in a long time for those who are serious about converting from job application to interview.\nThe message from Michael is clear: If your resume is not written for ATS compliance, you run the risk of it being eliminated from the recruitment process.\nAs we discussed at the end of this episode, there\u2019s no need for professionals to re-invent the wheel.
