Effective Resumes

Getting your resume past HR filters is important if you want to stand a chance of getting hired.

Most of the time when you apply on a web-based application system you may feel that your resume goes into a black hole don't you?  Well, what you may or may not be aware is that due to the pure volume of resumes and the number of job positions open at any given time -- most companies have technological tools to help with the application and screening process.

In order to assist with reviewing resumes many organizations have a filter that assists with reviewing and selecting resumes that meet the qualifications, experience, competencies, etc. of the position.

While I am not familiar with this company (Career Donkey), there are many different ways to educate yourself with the knowledge and skills to better target your resume to increase the likelihood of being seen.

Remember the job of your resume is to land you the interview.
