Thanks for sharing. My current take on setting up my skills and experiences is to put them in context of my previous positions. Would that work for an ATS? (For a human, I'll probably highlight the words somehow)



The ATS doesn't care where the words are usually, it's just trying to find certain words. If you're applying to smaller firms it's less likely to be an issue. As long as you incorporate any buzzwords (usually languages, tools, frameworks) that are likely to be listed as firm requirements by the company, where they are included on the resume shouldn't matter much.
