2. We receive questions all day long from our members
seeking career advice. Do you know what topic we
get the most questions about?
Resumes.
Things like:
● One page or two?
● Objective statement or not?
● Font Size 11 or 12?
● Include dates or not?
3. A resume only works when someone
is expecting it.
All the formatting in the world will not get your
resume noticed.
The chances of your resume being a complete
key word match is not likely, which means
recruiters aren’t seeing it.
Nevermind the dreaded ATS system!
4. Over 80% of jobs are
gotten via referral.
You have to leverage your professional
network so when a job is posted you can
ask your contact to get it in front of the
hiring manager.
Don’t have a big network?
That’s what LinkedIn is for!
5. Please know, I'm not suggesting you
ignore the design of your resume.
I'm just telling you if you think constantly
tweaking your resume and submitting it
online is what will get you hired, then you
are going to continue to look for a job for a
very long time.
