Are You Hearing Nothing But Crickets In All Your Job Application?? by EmploymentHubCV: 9:49am On Aug 17, 2020
Are you hearing nothing but crickets after you submit your resume? There are ways to remedy that.

It's a frustrating cycle to spend hours searching for jobs, sink time into perfecting your applications, and then … *crickets!!*.

Before you throw in the towel (or throw your computer out the window), here are some common reasons your resume is probably getting ignored — plus exactly what you can do to finally get noticed.


Either the company is actively Hiring or the position has been put on hold, you are definitely going to get lost in a sea of resumes so how do you stand out from a hundred of other job applications?

*Not playing smarter than the resume bots*:

If you don't know about resume bots (more technically called applicant-tracking systems), here's a quick rundown: Companies, especially larger ones, use software to rank resumes. This system automatically sorts and scans resumes, weeding out the ones deemed “unfit.” That could mean your resume is getting passed over before any actual human hiring managers put their eyes on it. You could be qualified for other but unqualified to the resume bots. Hence another crickets!!

Solution;
*Keep the design simple* : Get rid of complicated templates and don't bury information in headers, tables, or footers.

*Include keywords from the job description in your resume* : These are typically transferable skills used frequently throughout the listing.

*Don't save your resume as a PDF:* It appears cleaner, but it's not ATS-friendly.

Not focusing on the job description.

You should be tailoring and tweaking your resume for every job you apply for. Not only can this help you beat the resume bots (those keywords are important), it can also help you charm the actual humans who are reviewing your resume.

Take note of the qualifications, skills, and requirements in the posting, and make sure you incorporate those throughout your resume when relevant. The easiest place to tailor your resume is in the "Areas of Expertise" section. You can also tweak your resume summary to showcase specific facets of your experience that match up to the job description.

Not showing your successes
To show your accomplishments, think about what you did to complete your job. Did you design a spreadsheet? Receive recognition? Hit company quota? When possible, be specific and use numbers to back up your claims.

Hi everyone - if you have applied for far too many jobs and yet no interview, that a clear indication that your CV is not effective in a professional standard. Getting a job in this economy is tough! Meaning there are so many other strong candidates and competitors in the labour workforce recruitment adding up with recent graduates. To make matter even worse... average recruiter will give you CV about 15 seconds of their attention before proceeding forward to the next one, meaning also your CV needs to standout and grab their attention fast or ...you just don't get hired. So how does one do this exactly? The Good news is we offer a wide range of services base on rewriting, proofreading and editing, attaching customise template, summarizing and constructing CV( resume) into a powerful marketing tools that will start getting you interview invites. You can DM (08080756701) to keep in touch and make your request .

Hi
Re: Are You Hearing Nothing But Crickets In All Your Job Application?? by EmploymentHubCV: 9:02pm On Aug 26, 2020
Hey�

As a Human Resources Specialist, I receive numerous resumes while searching for suitable candidate(s) for clients.
 
The difficulty we experience each time, while sorting through tons of resumes is overwhelming. Well, thank God for ATS (Applicant Tracking System).
 
Sadly, to applicants, this software seems ruthless, casting away applications before they get to the hiring manager.
 
Do you need to optimize your resume so it gets past the ATS and gets you in front of the hiring manager quickly?

*What does your digital presence say about you?*

It's not enough to have a killer resume.  93 percent of recruiters will review your online presence before they decide to interview you.
But what exactly does "online presence" mean? From your social media profiles, like Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter, to a personal website or portfolio, anything a recruiter can find if they search for you is part of your online presence. That's why you need to make sure your online presence is cohesive and supports your career goals.

Start by Googling yourself to see what comes up, cleaning out irrelevant information, fixing the privacy settings on profiles you don't want a recruiter to see, and creating an online narrative that fits your goals. 

Also, make sure your LinkedIn profile not only supports your career goals, but is also setting you apart from other candidates. You want to make sure recruiters can find you — and are impressed with what they see. Our LinkedIn profile makeover service can help you do just that.  

Register for our LinkedIn optimization service and let's make you a professional brand!!

*Are you emphasizing your achievements on your CV?*

Depending upon how your resume is worded, you may come across as a “doer” rather than an “achiever.” This is something employers — and resume writers — are always looking out for. Take a second look at how you describe your work experience and make sure you're emphasizing the results you've achieved, rather than the tasks you've been assigned.
