My fiancé was emailed by this company regarding a job that they wanted to submit his resume to. He sent his resume and they confirmed it was passed on to the company. The next day they sent an email stating that is resume wasn't ATS compliant and that he should go to this link that they provided to pay for an updated resume. This is a scam/phishing/fake company. The phone number listed in their email also doesn't work. Below is the email that they sent. Thank you again for sharing your resume. I had a chance to review your background and resume. You bring a wealth of valuable experience to this role. Your career reflects the kind of executive leadership that consistently drives transformation and high-growth outcomes. The company is actively prioritizing executive leaders like you, seasoned, forward-thinking, and equipped to lead large-scale transformation. When I submitted your resume to the company, the system couldn't properly process the resume format for the next interview round, not due to your experience, but because the formatting isn't fully ATS-compliant. The resume layout didn't scan cleanly (this often happens with multi-column or graphic-heavy designs). Several of our placed candidates have used Resume.Ats to modernise their formatting, and I believe it could be equally helpful for you. They do an excellent job of making executive resumes ATS-compliant without making them look generic. Once that's in place, I'll resubmit your profile right away.
