What Makes a Good Resume in 2026?

A strong resume must clear two filters before a human ever reads it: ATS (Applicant Tracking System) software and a recruiter's 6-second scan.

ATS systems scan resumes for keywords matching the job description. Clean formatting, standard section headings (Experience, Education, Skills), and no tables or text boxes help ATS parse your resume correctly.

All 3 TechCompare templates are built with these requirements in mind — simple structure, standard fonts, and keyword-scannable text.
