π‘ Career Tip of the Week: Tailor Your Resume
One of the biggest resume mistakes students make is sending the same resume to every employer.
The job description is your guide! Pay close attention to the duties, qualifications, and skills listed, then incorporate relevant keywords and experiences from your background into your resume.
Why does this matter? π
Many employers use Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) to scan resumes for keywords before a human ever sees them. If your resume doesn't include the skills and qualifications they're looking for, you may be overlookedβeven if you're a great candidate.
π Keep your resume ATS-friendly:
βοΈ Use clear headings and plain text
βοΈ Avoid excessive graphics, icons, and rating systems
βοΈ Match your skills and experiences to the job description when appropriate
Need help tailoring your resume? Big Interview can help you build a resume and compare it against a job description to identify important keywords and skills employers are looking for. Access Big Interview through the CCLD webpage or link in the bio using your MGA email address and start optimizing your resume today!
