Frequently Asked Questions

How is a Canadian resume different from a US resume?
Canadian resumes often have different length expectations (2 pages is more common), may not include a photo, and have specific formatting for contact information (e.g., postal codes). Our tool checks for these nuances.
Do all Canadian companies use ATS?
A vast majority of large and medium-sized Canadian companies use an Applicant Tracking System (ATS) to manage high volumes of applications. It is essential to have an ATS-friendly resume.
Should I mention my immigration status?
Generally, it is best not to include your immigration or visa status directly on the resume unless the job posting specifically asks for it. Focus on your eligibility to work in Canada in your cover letter if needed.
What is the best file format for a resume in Canada?
PDF is the universally accepted and safest format. It preserves your formatting across all devices. Our tool works best with PDF files.
