Optimize your resume for the India job market
Indian ATS-driven hiring, especially in IT services and tech, weighs exact technical certifications, academic percentages, and notice period alongside standard keyword matching. Hireva compares your resume to the job description, finds keyword gaps, and shows what to fix before you apply.

Typical rejection reasons
Why resumes get filtered out in India
Omitting notice period when the posting or platform expects it upfront
Paraphrasing certifications instead of naming them exactly as issued
Missing academic percentage/CGPA in sectors where it's still commonly screened
Generic tool references ("cloud platforms") instead of exact ones ("AWS," "Azure") the JD names
