When we create a Resume, we make sure that:
➡️ The description presents to the reader our expertise
➡️ Job tailored & includes keywords
➡️ Maximum 1-page length
➡️ Eye appealing & reader-friendly
➡️ We are proud of what we can contribute to a team 🤝
That’s all correct❗
But what if I tell you that your Resume IS NOT about YOU? 🤔
What if I ask you to switch the perspective and think as a hiring manager (of the role you apply to)? 🔄
He has an open role, and his challenge/ problem is to pick the RIGHT candidate from the market. 🔍 Among other strategic business decisions, he needs to make, he is responsible for choosing the RIGHT specialist for a SPECIFIC role. 🎯
You can differentiate from other applicants by switching the perspective. While writing your Resume ask yourself: how does my Resume solve the problem of the hiring manager?
To find out the problem of the hiring manager/ company, you can:
🟢 Carefully study the Job Description
🟢 Analyse the company’s website & social media accounts
🟢 Speak to employees who are working there or were working at this company (especially if they are in your network).
💡 Remember: Your Resume is a strategic document that positions you as the solution to the employer's challenges.
