Getting past these resume screeners for an interview is definitely issue. Do we have any tips or tidbits about crafting a good resume?I was getting rejected for shyt I applied to a year or more prior

I was going over my resume today and realized some of my bullet points sucked and didn't actually convey my impact and experience well.
How do you guys normally go about getting your resume reviewed?
It seems like the hardest part is getting past the ATS hurdle. I read, even as far back as... like a decade ago
, that premade templates are hard for ATS software to parse. Tables and headers can obfuscate information. I think it's a toss up whether or not they're using OCR to parse the text or if they're parsing out the actual file.What's been most successful for me has been to make the whole thing from scratch. Fill out the content of the resume as if it's just a straight plaintext document. When you have what you want then you can style. Periodically save the file as a plaintext document and visually inspect. If it looks like your pre-style document, then the software should parse it correctly. This is a time consuming process and I've probably done it 3 or 4 times since 2016ish. There are sites that claim to have ATS friendly resumes but I'm skeptical. However the advice on creating ATS friendly resumes seems to be accurate.
Then follow the typical advice; use action words, show accomplishments not responsibilities, quantify things where possible (believably lie if you gotta), use keywords from the posting. I'm also not convinced tailoring to the requisition actually matters - maybe not for tech roles anyway since we're volume appliers.
Before shyt was fukked I had more Naps in my inbox than a call center, and a fair amount of direct contact from company head hunters.
5 minutes ago, I got a rejection email saying that the position has been filled
I was scheduled to have the final round (4 hours of interviews) on Monday
Edit: I knew something was weird with it though. It was literally 2 weeks between each round. And that was me choosing to do the interviews as soon as I could.

It's fine because I'm not really sure I wanted the job, but I wanted the option of taking it
