The language in your resume must match the language in the job description. You will hate this but you need to customize a resume for each job listing. Maybe it is just a few tweaks but still a pain.

Also, one way to check this box is to have an Objective paragraph at the top of your resume. You can throw sentences there that can help the matching. For example, if a job wants 5-7 years of experience but you have 10, this could count AGAINST you. Put "7 years experience doing X" in that Objective paragraph to check the box.
