About

About this course

If you're applying and hearing nothing, an Applicant Tracking System (ATS) may be screening you out before any person sees you. This course shows you how the bots work and how to get past them — and how to use AI to tailor each application to each job in minutes instead of hours, so you can apply smart and often without burning out.

You'll build a fast tailoring system: paste a job posting, get a customized résumé and cover letter draft ready to refine.
