FAQ

Keyword Questions Answered

How many keywords should my resume have?

Aim for 15-25 relevant keywords that match the job description. Quality over quantity—each keyword should appear naturally in context, not stuffed in randomly.

Should I use exact keyword matches?

Yes, when possible. ATS often looks for exact matches. If the job says "project management," use that exact phrase rather than just "managed projects."

Where should I put keywords?

Distribute keywords throughout: summary/objective, skills section, work experience (in context), and education. Don't cluster them all in one place.

Can I have too many keywords?

Yes. Keyword stuffing looks unnatural to recruiters and some ATS systems flag it. Focus on the most important 15-20 keywords and use them naturally.
