Resumés

Tell your story well.

Once upon a time all  a resume need to be effective was to look different.  Interesting typefaces, lots of white space and a creative ways of displaying your personality was enough to get you in the door and into an interview.

Today, though,  we live in the “age of the machines”” Industry studies estimate that as many as 72-percent of resumes submitted to companies never are reviewed by human eyes.  Applicant Tracking Systems now are the gatekeepers for most companies’ talent acquisition efforts and they are unforgiving.  Tightly meshed requirements screening keep only the most perfect of fits from landing in a hiring manager’s hands. Outside-the-box experience or accomplishments never make it into the “In Box.”
