Just touching upon a TSS, it's huge outlet at the moment. I can see a lot of talent getting really frustrated with ATS systems. Everybody thinks it's all AI, but there's obviously somebody behind that you guys to sort of really filter through. So Joanna, you mentioned keywords in ATS, so talk to a little bit around that. So what does ATC's pick up and how did you get through that system? So the the system that I currently use, we are changing onto a new one, but I currently use Team Taylor, which I know is super popular. It's a fantastic ATS and it's great in startup environments as well because it's user friendly. Candidate experience is great. So candidates will come up against Team Taylor quite often. And when you create a role, I pick keywords that I'm actually looking for in the role as well. So it's what when I'm interviewing, it's what I look for in the candidate as well. So what Team Taylor will then do for me is it? Create. It's like a coloured bar that goes across and it tells me how 11 the candidate is that CV is compared to my job advert and compared to the what I've keyword I've put in and what skills and basically what I'm looking for. So if I see that that's 8090% I'm going to jump to that CV straight away and say right, this this AT says that this is a good fit. Let's have a look. If you'd not including the keywords that are relevant to the role, it's not going to pick up on that and then. If I'm 200 CV's later and that CV is at the bottom of the pile, you are kind of missing out on putting yourself up at the top by not including these keywords. But unlike Mark said, don't just list them all just because you've done one force on one text act 10 years ago. If it's not relevant anymore or it's not a tech stack that's used in that company, I would take it off because it is overcrowding and yeah, just creating a bit too much clutter that the ATS might not pick up on the key. Key areas because it is trying to battle through the rest of the clutter.
