Jotform’s AI Resume Screener exclusively supports PDF files for resume uploads. This ensures that the formatting, structure, and content of resumes remain consistent during the screening process.

Unlike other file formats, PDFs preserve layout integrity, making it easier for the AI to extract relevant details such as work experience, skills, and education without errors.

Additionally, using PDF files prevents compatibility issues that may arise with Word documents or other file types. If a resume is in a different format, you can easily convert it to a PDF using online tools or built-in export options in your preferred word processor before uploading it to the AI Resume Screener.
