Why Workday / Greenhouse / iCIMS / Portals Flags or Rejects Standard Files

When job seekers or students polish their writing in ChatGPT or Claude and copy-paste it into resumes or submission portals, hidden narrow no-break spaces (`U+202F`) and zero-width characters (`U+200B`) get pasted along with it—causing legacy ATS parsers (like Workday and Taleo) to garble keywords or flag the submission.
