So, how do you ensure ATS ranks your resume as the most matched candidate as per the job requirement? First, match the keywords in your resume and job application to the job description. For example, if a company is looking for a senior software engineer, the ATS will look for the term \u2018<a title=\"Software Engineer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.monster.com.sg\/search\/software-engineer-jobs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Software Engineer<\/a>\u2019 and the technologies required. So, make sure you scan the job description and match the same with the relevant keywords in your resume. Another trick is to use both abbreviations and long forms. For example, if you are listing <a title=\"SEO Jobs\" href=\"https:\/\/www.monster.com.sg\/search\/seo-jobs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">SEO<\/a> and SEM as skillsets, it\u2019s better to use \u2013 Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) and Search Engine Marketing (SEM). Keep it simple and use the commonly used headings and phrases to beat the ATS and getting shortlisted.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Monster.com strives to support all initiatives by government, businesses and communities alike to create better opportunities and remove barriers for seekers to find right jobs that match their skills and expertise.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><a title=\"Click to search and apply to thousands of jobs\" href=\"https:\/\/www.monster.com.sg\/search\/jobs-in-singapore\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Click to search and apply to thousands of jobs<\/a>!<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">All the best!<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><strong>You may also like:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.monster.com.sg\/career-advice\/6-tips-to-search-for-a-job-in-an-uncertain-job-market\/\">6 Tips to Search for a Job in an Uncertain Job Market<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.monster.com.sg\/career-advice\/tips-and-ideas-to-set-up-a-home-office-you-love\/\">Tips and Ideas to Set Up a Home Office You Love<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.monster.com.sg\/career-advice\/cover-letters-that-get-you-the-interview\/\">Cover Letters That Get You the Interview<\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At a time when the COVID-19 induced slowdown has impacted jobs in Singapore, Monster.com in partnership with Workforce Singapore (WSG) is helping Singaporeans connect with the right opportunities available in the market.
