Frequently asked questions
- Do executives even go through ATS?
- Below the C-suite, usually yes: director and VP openings at large companies run through the same requisition systems. Executive search firms also parse resumes into their own databases.
- How long should an executive resume be?
- Two pages is standard at 10+ years. Lead with scope and outcomes (P&L, team size, growth) rather than task lists.
