Inside the ATS: Myths, Mistakes, and What Recruiters Really See. Nkem Nwankwo, Greenhouse

My guest in this episode is Nkem Nwankwo, Senior Director of Product Management at Greenhouse. We broke down how applicant tracking systems (ATS) actually work, why they don’t automatically reject candidates, and which common myths keep job seekers stuck.We talked about how Greenhouse is reshaping the hiring experience and why the team built My Greenhouse — a new portal where candidates can manage their profiles and job searches in one place. Nkem explained the difference between Boolean and AI-powered semantic search, why keyword stuffing no longer works, and how AI can actually help strong candidates get noticed. He also shared actionable advice for escaping the “black hole” of applications: apply early, build relationships with recruiters, and lean on referrals — still the most reliable way to get to the top of the list.Nkem Nwankwo — Senior Director of Product Management at Greenhouse.LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nkemnwan/ ***➡️ Schedule a career session (create a perfect ATS friendly resume or advanced LinkedIn profile) https://annanaumova.com➡️ Guide "Your perfect resume" (English language) (Pre-order) https://link.coursecreator360.com/widget/form/ZzcWPWEdxjGRzFdyUY29➡️ Guide "Your perfect resume" (Russian language) https://go.mbastrategy.com/usresume➡️ Guide "How to Design a LinkedIn Profile that Recruiters Can't Ignore" (Russian language) (Pre-order) https://link.coursecreator360.com/widget/form/ObfVCQ2clIWTdNcQBAkf
