This question is about resume spelling.

Will ATS pick up on resume accents?

By Zippia Team - Feb. 14, 2022

Some applicant tracking systems may not be able to read accent marks in your resume. They may appear as question marks or empty boxes instead. In the worst-case scenario, this might cause your resume to be rejected before it even reaches a human reader.

Optimizing your resume for ATS means sticking to the standard version of almost everything within a text document.
