Episode notes
Resume Is A Snapshot Decision
- A resume is a snapshot that helps employers decide who to advance from large applicant pools.
- It must quickly show whether they should learn more about you.
Design For Quick Scanning
- Keep your resume clean with white space and clear sections to create a strong first impression.
- Put contact details and recent roles where they jump out on the top half of the first page.
Keep Layout ATS-Friendly
- Avoid two-column or highly designed templates that confuse applicant tracking systems (ATS).
- Use simple linear layouts so ATS can correctly read your contact details and headings.
