my biggest issue is keeping my resume 'fact based' in a format that's not cluttered but easy on the eyes to meet that 6 sec review window. The article also refers to accomplishments, does that mean awards or special recognitions? Would you have any suggestions for me? Thnx.

Hello J.T., these are real good points to better understand why applicants aren't getting call backs after applying. Too much stock is placed on online applications but with a 3% success rate that option needs to be re-evaluated. Thanks for sharing this!
