Ensure your resume and portfolio upload properly to strict Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) without losing formatting.
Compress PDF freePicture this: you've spent weeks crafting the perfect graphic resume and portfolio. You go to upload it to the employer's Workday or Greenhouse portal, and you hit a hard 'File Too Large' error. Compressing a PDF for a job application is a delicate task. You need to hit their strict 2MB or 5MB limits, but you cannot afford for your design work to look blurry or your text to become unreadable by text-scanning bots. Our compressor is built to handle professional documents, reducing size while ensuring ATS parsers can perfectly read every word of your career history.

Preparing documents for employer portals
Most modern ATS platforms (Applicant Tracking Systems) allow up to 5MB, but many legacy or government career portals cap uploads at 1MB or 2MB. It is safest to keep your resume under 2MB.
