Every resume submission to a major company begins with an encounter with **ATS (Applicant Tracking System)** algorithms. These systems rank resumes based on their relevance to the Job Description (JD). If your resume is written in one set of terms and the job description in another (for example, you wrote \"deployment of CI/CD pipelines\" while the job description requires \"orchestration of automated deployment workflows\"), the ATS might filter you out at the very first step simply by failing to find an exact keyword match.
