Who reviews
Recruiting team

Prevalent in
Fortune 500, healthcare, government
Common at large hospital systems, federal contractors, and legacy Fortune 500 companies.
What gets resumes filtered out in BrassRing
- →Two-column layouts, sidebars, and text boxes drop content silently during parsing.
- →Using creative job titles instead of the posting's exact title — boolean searches miss you.
- →Paraphrasing required skills (e.g., writing 'Python programming' when posting asks for 'Python').
- →Contact info in headers or footers. BrassRing frequently misreads these regions.
- →Scanned PDFs or image-based resumes. BrassRing cannot OCR reliably.
