    While hiding a bunch of likely keywords in the resume to increase the match rate is a good idea in theory, it’s a fairly well-known trick by now, so some ATSs may already be programmed to watch for it.

    Also, some of them apparently export the text of your resume into a recruiter-friendly spreadsheet, which could get screwed up if you’ve hidden a few hundred extra words in there.
