Key Takeaways

  • 75% of U.S. employers use automated applicant tracking systems to screen resumes before a human reviews them (Harvard Business School & Accenture, 2021)
  • The most common ATS failures are missing keywords, incompatible formatting, and incorrect file types
  • ResumeGeni scores your resume across 8 parsing layers — modeled on the same steps enterprise ATS platforms like Workday, Greenhouse, and Taleo use to evaluate candidates

How ATS Resume Scoring Works

Applicant tracking systems parse your resume into structured data — extracting your name, contact info, work history, skills, and education — then score how well that data matches the job requirements. Many ATS rejections happen because the parser couldn't extract critical fields, not because the candidate wasn't qualified.

LayerWhat It ChecksWhy It Matters
Document extractionFile format, encoding, readabilityCorrupted or image-only PDFs fail immediately
Layout analysisTables, columns, headers, footersMulti-column layouts break field extraction
Section detectionExperience, education, skills headingsNon-standard headings cause sections to be missed
Field mappingName, email, phone, dates, titlesMissing contact info is a common cause of immediate rejection
Keyword matchingJob-specific terms, skills, certificationsKeyword overlap affects recruiter search visibility and ATS scoring
Chronology checkDate ordering, gap detectionReverse-chronological order is expected by most ATS
QuantificationMetrics, numbers, measurable outcomesQuantified achievements help human reviewers and some scoring models
Confidence scoringOverall parse quality and completenessLow-confidence parses get deprioritized in results

Frequently Asked Questions

Is ResumeGeni free?
Yes. ResumeGeni is currently in beta — ATS analysis, scoring, and initial improvement suggestions are free with no signup required. Full guidance and saved reports may require a free account.
What file formats are supported?
PDF, DOCX, DOC, TXT, RTF, ODT, and Apple Pages. PDF and DOCX are recommended for best ATS compatibility.
How is the ATS score calculated?
Your resume is processed through an 8-layer parsing pipeline that extracts structured data the same way enterprise ATS platforms do. The score reflects how completely and accurately your resume can be parsed, plus how well your content matches common ATS ranking criteria.
Can ATS read PDF resumes?
Yes, but not all PDFs are equal. Text-based PDFs parse well. Image-only PDFs (scanned documents) and PDFs with complex tables or multi-column layouts often fail ATS parsing. Our analyzer will flag these issues.
How do I improve my ATS score?
Focus on three areas: use a clean single-column format, include keywords from the job description naturally in your experience bullets, and ensure all sections (contact, experience, education, skills) use standard headings.

Operations Coordinator

Casium · Bellevue, WA

Our Mission

Casium is building the fastest, most comprehensive business immigration solution for modern companies.

Today, teams using Casium see filings move 11x faster, spend 3+ fewer admin hours per case, and pay roughly 30% less than with a typical law firm, all while achieving an approval rate that is above market median. We combine deep legal expertise with AI innovation to help companies secure top global talent with more speed, clarity, and confidence.

Talent is global. But immigration infrastructure is still fragmented, manual, and opaque. HR teams drown in coordination and compliance work. High-priority hires get delayed. Critical talent is lost to process friction. Casium is rebuilding immigration from the ground up so that what has historically been slow, stressful, and operationally messy becomes fast, transparent, and scalable.

Why We’re Built to Win

Casium is not another law firm with better software, and it is not another software company pretending legal expertise is a plug-in.

We are building a category-defining company at the intersection of legal depth, technical excellence, and lived understanding of how immigration actually breaks inside fast-moving organizations.

Our advantage starts with the team. Casium brings together attorneys and operators with deep experience from places like Microsoft, Meta, Amazon, DataRobot, LSEG, Vialto Partners, Envoy Global, and in-house legal teams at major global companies. We understand both how immigration is practiced and how high-stakes systems should be designed, shipped, and scaled.

Our founding team brings deep technical and product leadership experience, including building and shipping AI products used at enterprise scale. Our legal leadership brings deep expertise from both in-house and immigration-focused environments, including experience with the workflows, risk models, and service gaps that legacy incumbents have accepted for too long.

That combination matters. Most players in this space have one side of the equation: legal knowledge without product depth, or software ambition without the operational and legal judgment required to win trust. Casium has both.

We also have strong ecosystem leverage. We are backed by investors and operators who understand both enterprise software and legal transformation, including AI2 Incubator, Maverick Ventures, GTMfund, Success Venture Partners, and Jake Heller, Co-founder and CEO of Casetext, acquired by Thomson Reuters.

This market is large, painful, and ripe for reinvention. We believe the winning company will be the one that combines legal quality, AI-native execution, and exceptional customer trust. That is what we are building.

Our customers

We serve top-tier talent and companies, and we’ve had zero customer churn to date. Our customers consistently tell us Casium is the best immigration experience they’ve ever had. We’ve built a reputation for speed, transparency, and care and it shows in our word-of-mouth growth and extremely high approval record to date.

Our Motivation

We are builders, innovators and world-class attorneys who were once hindered only by the complexities of navigating the right immigration pathways.

During our own journeys, we experienced firsthand the profound impact of receiving high-quality guidance, transparent petition preparation, and rapid processing - where every day counts. Motivated by our experiences, we founded Casium to revolutionize immigration services. Our goal is to provide our customers with a seamless, effective experience so that they can focus on what they do best: building and innovating.

About the Role

We’re looking for an Operations Coordinator who is highly organized, detail-oriented, and energized by doing high-quality work across many parts of a fast-moving company. This is a generalist role for someone who enjoys variety, thrives on execution, and wants to grow by becoming a trusted operator across the business.

You’ll support core operational workflows across immigration case coordination, print and shipment logistics, post-filing follow-through, and administrative execution. You’ll also help across events, marketing, vendor coordination, and internal process improvement. This role is ideal for someone who likes rolling up their sleeves, takes ownership quickly, and wants broad exposure to how a company runs.

You’ll work closely with attorneys, case managers, marketing, product, and the founder. Your work will directly affect the quality, speed, and reliability of the experience we deliver.

What You’ll Own

Immigration operations execution

  • Own key case operations workflows including engagement materials, shipment coordination, mailing follow-through, invoicing handoff, and case record maintenance

  • Track filings, delivery status, and government correspondence with strong attention to detail and clear internal follow-up

  • Flag missing items, delays, or execution risks early so cases keep moving smoothly

Client, vendor, and team coordination

  • Support day-to-day coordination across clients, external vendors, and internal teams to keep operations running cleanly and reliably

  • Help manage onboarding, scheduling, follow-ups, and operational logistics across active matters and internal workstreams

  • Serve as a dependable connective layer across attorneys, case managers, product, marketing, and leadership

Events, marketing, and external execution

  • Assist with event logistics, outreach coordination, materials preparation, and follow-up so external moments feel polished and well run

  • Support lightweight marketing and communication efforts including drafting copy, coordinating campaigns, and helping maintain a thoughtful brand presence

  • Represent Casium with professionalism and care in every external interaction

Process improvement and general operations

  • Take on cross-functional administrative and operational projects that improve how the business runs

  • Identify workflow gaps, inefficiencies, or recurring friction points and help build better processes, templates, and habits

  • Become the kind of operator people trust to get important details right and keep things moving

What We’re Looking For

  • 1 to 4+ years of experience in operations, coordination, administration, client support, or another highly execution-oriented role

  • Strong attention to detail and comfort working in environments where precision matters

  • Highly organized and process-minded. You naturally create structure and keep moving parts on track

  • Clear, professional written communication and strong follow-through

  • Comfort juggling multiple priorities in a fast-moving environment with shifting needs

  • High ownership for your level. You notice what needs to get done and step in without waiting to be asked

  • A collaborative mindset and willingness to support across functions, from case ops to events to marketing

  • Builder energy and growth mindset. You are excited by the idea that this role can expand as you do

  • Bonus if you have worked in immigration, legal operations, professional services, startup operations, or another detail-heavy service environment

Why Casium

  • Work on a category that matters. Immigration is high-stakes, deeply human, and still full of outdated workflows

  • Get broad exposure early. You will work across operations, client coordination, events, marketing, and internal process improvement

  • Partner closely with a high-ownership team that cares deeply about quality, speed, and trust

  • Have room to grow. This is a generalist role, but strong performers will have real opportunities to expand scope and responsibility

  • Your work will have visible impact on the customer experience and on how the company operates day to day

Why You Shouldn’t Join Us

  • You want a highly narrow role with a fixed checklist and little variation day to day

  • You do your best work only when every process is already fully built and every task is clearly handed to you

  • You do not enjoy detail-heavy execution or following through on operational loose ends

  • You prefer environments where speed, ambiguity, and constant context-switching are minimal

  • You are not excited by the idea of growing into broader ownership over time
