[AI] How to pass ATS (Applicant Tracking Systems)

 When it comes to passing through the initial screening by AI (Applicant Tracking Systems or ATS), it's important to optimize your resume for the specific keywords and formatting preferences that these systems use. Here are some tips:

  1. Use Relevant Keywords:

    • Identify keywords from the job description and include them in your resume. ATS systems look for matches between the job requirements and your resume content.
  2. Keyword Placement:

    • Integrate keywords naturally throughout your resume, especially in the skills, experience, and education sections. However, avoid keyword stuffing; ensure the language remains clear and coherent.
  3. Simple Formatting:

    • Stick to a clean and straightforward format. Avoid complex designs, tables, or graphics that may confuse the ATS. Use standard fonts and keep the layout consistent.
  4. Use Standard Headings:

    • ATS systems are designed to recognize specific sections. Use standard headings such as "Education," "Skills," "Experience," and so on. This helps the system parse your information correctly.
  5. Avoid Headers and Footers:

    • Some ATS systems may have difficulty reading information in headers and footers. Place critical information within the main body of the resume.
  6. Include Relevant File Formats:

    • Submit your resume in a compatible file format. ATS systems typically prefer Word documents (.doc or .docx) or plain text (.txt) files.
  7. No Graphics or Symbols:

    • ATS systems may struggle with graphics, images, symbols, or unusual characters. Stick to plain text and standard bullet points.
  8. Use Standard Section Titles:

    • Use standard titles like "Experience," "Education," and "Skills." This helps the ATS categorize your information correctly.
  9. Match Tense and Language:

    • Ensure consistency in verb tense and language throughout your resume. For example, if you describe your current job in the present tense, maintain that tense throughout.
  10. Tailor Each Resume:

    • Customize your resume for each application, incorporating specific keywords from the job description. Avoid sending identical resumes for different positions.
  11. Proofread:

    • Correct any spelling or grammatical errors. ATS systems can misinterpret misspelled words, affecting the accuracy of the match.

Remember that while optimizing for ATS is crucial, your resume should also be appealing to human readers once it passes this initial screening. Balancing both aspects will increase your chances of success in the application process.

[STM32] How to configure Timer 1, Channel 3 is PWM 1kHz, duty cycle 20% to control BLDC motor

 To configure Timer1 for a 1 kHz PWM signal with a 20% duty cycle on an STM32H7S3L8 microcontroller, follow these steps: 1. Understand the Timer Parameters PWM Frequency : 1 kHz → Period = 1 ms. Duty Cycle : 20% → ON time = 0.2 ms. The timer’s clock frequency is derived from the APB clock (e.g., TIMCLK). Let’s assume you know the APB clock frequency. The Timer prescaler and auto-reload register (ARR) define the PWM frequency. 2. Compute Timer Parameters Formula: PWM Frequency = Timer Clock (Prescaler + 1) * (ARR + 1) \text{PWM Frequency} = \frac{\text{Timer Clock}}{\text{(Prescaler + 1) * (ARR + 1)}} PWM Frequency = (Prescaler + 1) * (ARR + 1) Timer Clock ​ For 1 kHz PWM: A R R = Timer Clock PWM Frequency ∗ ( Prescaler + 1) − 1 ARR = \frac{\text{Timer Clock}}{\text{PWM Frequency} * (\text{Prescaler + 1)}} - 1 A RR = PWM Frequency ∗ ( Prescaler + 1) Timer Clock ​ −...
