Why Your Resume Word Doc Keeps Crashing (Image Size Fix)

By Image Size Compress Team

Many Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) reject resume files larger than 2MB or 5MB. If you pasted a high-res photo into Word, you are likely over the limit.

Compress the Headshot

Take your profile photo and run it through our Image Compressor. Aim for a file size under 100KB. It will still look perfect in the document, but your Word file will be tiny.
