that is so critical to the growth of your career. Within a short one to two pages, you need to convey your relevant experience, education, and talents while highlighting achievements that resonate with the hiring manager. Not only that, but you also need to capture the right keywords to get through the HR screening process. It’s no wonder that most resumes fall short – up to 75% of resumes fail to impress the key decision-makers.
Fortunately, our team of experienced writers and career coaches know what it takes to succeed in the modern job market.
Keyword Research to get past the ATS
In the modern job search, using the right key words is essential to surviving the screening process and being found by recruiters. Human Resources uses Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) to manage their flood of candidates, and those systems rely heavily on the key words within the job description. Part of our process is to identify the critical key words for your specific industry and target job.
