ATS systems rank candidates partly on how many of the role's expected keywords appear, and where they appear. The strongest signal is a keyword used inside an achievement bullet, not just listed in the skills section.
Scoring rubric for Account Executive resumes
We weight three categories, calibrated to account executive hiring patterns:
How many of the 12 target keywords appear, and whether they live in achievement bullets or only the skills section.
Active verbs, specific scoped objects, and quantified outcomes. The same pattern hiring managers look for.
Parseable columns, standard section headers, fonts that survive parsing, and length appropriate to your career stage.
