Why your resume isn’t landing you an interview - How to Reverse Engineer Your Resume Step-by-step

[@beenishhassan4771]

Engaging and an Informative podcast indeed!

Thank you. How much has your resumé improved?

[@beenishhassan4771]

It has quite improved a lot in a short span of time.We get to know where to emphasise more wrt the credentials, experiences and accomplishments relevant to the job description.

That’s great! I often recommend folks to “pre-write” their resume. plan out what expectations you want to achieve, and ideally exceed so that you can have great experiences to write on your resume to set yourself for the next opportunity.

Thanks a lot, this is incredibly useful. Do I need to update my resume for every job application?

[@FOCUSinspired]

If you want to increase your likelihood to land and interview, yes. It's really statistics. Similar jobs will have similar requirements, responsibilities, and qualifications BUT not exactly the same. So if you update each resume based on the job description, then you're more likely to match what they are asking for. The good thing is that when you make enough updates, you get better and faster since you probably already wrote a bullet for a similar requirement before.

Thanks a lot, professor, for this such an informative video. I have a doubt about whether I should paste only job accountabilities in the job description section on ATS or both the job accountabilities and qualifications?

[@FOCUSinspired]

As much as you can from the job description. I typically start with responsibilities then go to requirements and qualifications.
