Why's having a well presented Resume so important?
|
|
|
Firstly, it is vital
to understand the resume reviewing process and your recruiter's
situation:
|
|
|
Recruiters are dealing with 10s of applications per vacancy.
|
|
|
|
Normally under immense time pressures
as working to tight deadlines. |
|
|
|
They will make their first decision on
your application by only scan reading your resume. |
|
|
|
They are initially searching for just a few keywords in your resume.
|
|
|
|
They will ruthlessly discard resumes that
they are finding difficult to navigate through, as their
time is precious. |
|
|
|
They will not give you the benefit of the doubt.
|
|
|
|
They don't know what you are really like & the presentation of your resume will reflect on you & the work they can expect from you.
|
|
|
|
Resume processing is very tedious for most
recruiters, so if you make their life easier they will
instantly take a positive attitude towards you. |
Many jobseekers do not realise that the way their resume information
is presented, can often be of more value in getting to the next
stage of the application process, than the information itself.
Poor presentation can:
|
|
|
Hide your most important information from the recruiter.
|
|
|
|
Stop your resume from being read fully.
|
|
|
|
Build a negative impression of you in the mind of the recruiter.
|
|
|
|
Convey to the recruiter that you would produce a poor standard of work.
|
|
|
|
Ultimately, STOP your application from going to the next stage.
|
Good presentation can:
|
|
|
Attract the recruiter to read the resume the
moment your application is received & before other applicants.
|
|
|
|
Convey that you possess more skills than
just what is described in the text of your resume. |
|
|
|
Smoothly guide the recruiter to the relevant areas of your history.
|
|
|
|
Instantly give the recruiter a positive feel about you.
|
|
|
|
Ultimately, get you an interview for your perfect job.
