Keywords for resume to get by ATS scan for IB/PE jobs?

Hi everyone, I've heard that most firms on the street will have your resume go through a ATS scan before anyone actually looks at it. However, I can't find what the keywords actually are. Does anyone know what the keywords that the ATS scan looks for are? Also any other resume tips? Thank you so much if you take the time to help me out
