Pre‑flight checklist (recommended)

Check	Action
File type	Export DOCX from Zety
Headings	Use standard sections (Summary, Experience, Education, Skills)
Layout	Prefer single‑column for ATS
Bullets	Replace icons with text bullets
Dates/Links	Verify YYYY–MM and working links

5‑step migration

1. Export from Zety → DOCX
2. Import to Vitae (Create → Import)
3. Resolve ATS warnings (headings, icons, spacing)
4. Paste JD → accept tailored bullet and summary suggestions
5. Export PDF/DOCX/MD

Common pitfalls

• Two‑column or graphic icons: convert to text for ATS.
• Dense paragraphs: break into bullets with measurable results.
• Date ranges: normalize formatting (e.g., Jan 2023–Present).

Troubleshooting

• Formatting loss on import: use DOCX (not PDF), and simplify styles.
• Bullets render oddly: switch to standard text bullets.
• Links broken: re‑add as plain URLs.

Alternatives

• Canva → best for design; verify ATS output after export.
• Jobscan → dedicated ATS keyword checking.
• Rezi / Teal → keywording and role targeting.

FAQ

1. How long does migration take? Typically 5–10 minutes.
2. Is it free? Free for the first 20 users; then $1/$3 monthly.
3. Will my resume be ATS‑safe? Yes—Vitae flags and helps fix parsing issues.
4. Can I keep multiple versions? Yes—profiles + documents.
5. Exports? PDF, DOCX, MD.
