If you are struggling to get responses, spend a bit more time on the keywords in your experience section. Many systems scan for specific technical skills, so mirroring the language from the job description can help you get past the initial filter. Also, keep your resume layout simple. Fancy formatting often confuses parsing software. Focus on clear, bulleted achievements rather than graphics or columns that look nice but break in automated systems.
