The 1,2,3, necessities to finding a JOB
The 1,2,3, necessities to finding a JOB:
1. Perfectly ordered, formatted, ATS-compliant CV/Resume.
2. LinkedIn Profile, fully completed, 1300 character narrative summary, with a professional headshot
photo.
3. Thorough interview prep at least 48 hours prior to any given interview.
Let me help you with this…..
For #1 there is a Typeform doc attached to my profile, with a list of what ATS will not accept and an example of a 100% ATS compliant CV/Resume.
For #2 feel free to use my LinkedIn Profile as a guideline.
For #3 please go to my Profile >Activity>Posts to find a multitude of posts I have written about interviews.
If any part of 1-3 is missing, you may struggle to find a job.
Discipline, method, routine, and perseverance are essential in the job search process.
You have all the skills and qualifications necessary to find a job!
Recruiters/Hiring Managers: you have no perfect job or organization to offer, so let’s get over the myth of the perfect candidate please!
Anything to add, please?

Several reason why your CV/Resume is FAILING online and via email
Understanding Application Tracking Systems (ATS): A Modern Hiring Essential
In today's fast-paced job market, employers often receive hundreds, sometimes thousands, of job applications for a single role. To efficiently manage this influx of resumes, companies increasingly rely on an Application Tracking System (ATS)—a software tool designed to streamline the hiring process. If you're applying for jobs, understanding how ATS works and how it affects your job search is essential.
What is an ATS?
An Application Tracking System is a software platform that helps companies manage their recruitment process. From receiving applications to screening candidates and scheduling interviews, ATS simplifies many aspects of hiring. Most importantly, ATS screens resumes for keywords, qualifications, and experience levels, helping recruiters filter candidates and identify the best fits for the job.
Hit the target job - 3 ways to avoid ATS and Recruiters
3 ways to avoid ATS and Recruiters:
1. Apply via the company website.
2. Search company name/people on LinkedIn to find direct contacts.
3. Ask connections at the company in question if they can refer you to a hiring manager.
Many, but not all, recruiters copy/paste job descriptions into there own job postings directly from the hiring company website.
Copy/paste into Google and chances are you will find the company offering the position.
Even if your CV/Resume is 100% ATS compliant, it is always better to try to get it seen by a human being.
When sending CV/Resume via email ensure that it is accompanied by a Cover Letter/Email (refer to my post of yesterday). Nobody will respond to an unexplained CV.
If you are complaining about ATS and lack of response/feedback from recruiters....
Stop whining and take control!
The amazing experience, skills and qualifications you have are YOURS!
So it’s YOUR responsibility to get them appreciated!
Any other suggestions, please?
