I honestly wonder why this channel does not have at least 300k subs. I don't comment on videos, but you definitely deserve way more recognition for that level of detail in these videos. Keep up the awesome work!

[@Astral_Dusk]

It'll come in time, providing rare gems to common demands seems key.

[@ajeckstein204]

Agreed^^

[@ltk7309]

Chill out. I’d rather this channel has a low subscriber count since KZbinrs tend to get complacent and cocky after gaining over 100k subs and you’ll notice the drastic drop in quality. So nope please stay low subs. I’ll just be watching but not subscribing.

[@Farah_Sharghi]

Thank you for your lovely comment! Glad you appreciate the video 😀

[@Farah_Sharghi]

@@ltk7309 hey lol! I mean I've been creating content for a while now, still trying to make time and figure out KZbin. Will do my best to keep up the quality 🤗

Everyone mentions to include HOW your job role moves the needle for the companies bottom line. For example, supported x-team to increase sales by 11%. If we do not have company figures results for our work, HOW ELSE can we "communicate OUR VALUE to the success of the company" so it sounds MORE than task driven accomplishments? Please share examples of DIFFERENT results so we can improve our linkedIn profiles. Appreciate your help 😊

Very good advice! One thing that everyone is suffering about is actually getting “quantifiable metric” or impact. Working to make an impact is one thing but getting quantifiable metric is whole another work. Usually this information is not available to the hands-on working person, but with the manager level, unless a manager actively shares.

[@Farah_Sharghi]

You can quantify things like time and how many people you worked with on a team or project

[@alexslee5356]

@@Farah_Sharghi would that be impactful enough to catch recruiter’s eyes? Just curious.

This channel is a gem for offering actual helpful advice to tech industry job searching!

Glad you are finding my videos helpful!

Give us an example for someone who works in software development and not direct/indirect sales.

[@Astral_Dusk]

This is what the stilly-cooked unemployment rate of 4-5% is still missing - competition with "employed" current job hunting as well. It helps to ask "how many people absolutely love their job?" and "how many are not looking for other work at all?" - these numbers seem much higher than a mere few extra percentage points to add to that unemployment rate. Also there are estimates that at-least 1/4 of the working population isn't actually making ends meet right now and are only doing part-time or gigs. Ultimately, what percent of the entire working population is job hunting? Probably a large portion and I'd guess at-least 1/3...

[@J3r_B3ar]

Essentially, lie strategically quickly. What a circus.

Such a great and useful video. Thanks for sharing it, Farah.

I would love to buy a book or a sheet with: possibles questions to answer in an interview or how to prepare for an interview, something like that 😉

BRO THE LINKEDIN RECRUITERS AND HIRING MANAGERS ARE ASSS!!!! Like imagine being online and active and you are ignoring those who need a job. Meet all the qualifications to not even get a call back just a instant denial 😒 shits wack

[@carsonjamesiv2512]

Interesting. 👍

[@kkondakov]

2:00 - yeah.. reducing the entire professional life to the collection of keywords: java, developer, c++., manager. Nobody really cares to read the full profile and think of a new job as a life changing event. It is all reduced to keyword match.

[@Farah_Sharghi]

You are right, that’s how recruiters use LinkedIn Recruiter to initially find people. Just like when you use Google to do a keyword search. It’s the same process. Then when we find profiles we scan them and if the profile looks interesting then we will spend more time reading and reach out 😀

[@kozas0]

And what was the reason a recruiter would post a job ad then ignore the people that showed interest and applied to it, and go hunting random people instead, again?

[@Farah_Sharghi]

You’re assuming the applicants were qualified

[@thatswhaticallmusic252]

So, linked in profile, replaces a resume ? Then, put it on facebook also , put it on social media huh.. people in fact put all their resume content on linkedin but at the end of the day only the interview process determines THE candidate to be hired and a RESUME is referred to 1-1 during interview and not linked it. So RESUME is still gold copy linked is not and tbh only few have gained from linked in same ads every now and then appear months after months.

[@muhammadabid5310]

Great advice. Thanks a lot

Any advice how to present your Linkedin profile if you have experiences from various fields? 😢

[@smilgazolyte6696]

do it funny way: there was a tv series the pretender. he was in each episode sb different (fireman, doctor, etc). present yourself as THE pretender who knows that thus did this and this, etc.

[@ema_ml]

Genuine question: what’s the point of your résumé if you have to rewrite it in LinkedIn?

[@Farah_Sharghi]

They’re different bc resumes are targeted and LinekdIn profiles are where you can describe more about what you’ve done

[@ema_ml]

@@Farah_Sharghi I’m not sure I get that point. What you’re suggesting for us to do under our Experience section on LinkedIn is typically what goes under your résumé to highlight your experience. Not describing what you’ve done defeats the purpose of a résumé. I’m sure you can agree a lot of people can’t afford to reveal details of their achievements (IP reasons, NDA reasons) on a semi-public platform, as opposed to a private résumé. If you’re directly applying, are you saying that a résumé with all those details will be discarded in favor of a LinkedIn profile with those details instead?

How do you approach the job market if you are making a comback from a disability and got your degree in finance 11 years ago... I have too much credit card debt now to invest in education again

[@sparrow243]

But how do you measured 15% of what so accurately?

[@d-shiri]

Thanks

Do you do consulting?

I do. Feel free to reach out to me via my website: www.farahsharghi.com/

[@dangilmore9724]

The most important thing is that you check all the right DEI boxes because skills, experience and ability no longer count. Its all about 'identity' and not merit. Being educated or a certain demographic automatically makes you "over quailfied" or some other euphamism for not fulfilling an employer's "social equity" crap. And thats why a lot of companies go bust. Can you say Boeing?
