Meta ATS Tips

How to get your resume past Meta's Applicant Tracking System and into the hands of a recruiter.

Which ATS does Meta use?

Meta uses Greenhouse as their Applicant Tracking System. This means your resume will be parsed and scored by Greenhouse's algorithms before a human ever sees it.

Application Tips for Meta

Meta uses Greenhouse as their ATS. Keep formatting clean and ATS-friendly.

Meta values "move fast" — show examples of shipping quickly and iterating.

For engineering roles, emphasize scale: "served 3B+ users" or "processed 100K requests/second."

Culture fit matters — show collaboration, openness, and impact orientation.

General ATS Formatting Rules

  • ✓Use a clean, single-column layout — multi-column formats confuse most ATS parsers.
  • ✓Stick to standard section headings: Experience, Education, Skills, Certifications.
  • ✓Avoid images, tables, text boxes, and headers/footers — these are often stripped.
  • ✓Submit as PDF unless the job posting specifically requests .docx.
  • ✓Match keywords from the job description exactly — ATS scores keyword overlap.
