Navigating the Job Market: Recruiters Share Their Tips on How to Standout
Event details
Recruiters only spend about six to eight seconds reviewing a resume—and that’s if it even gets in front of them. Many resumes don’t make it through applicant tracking systems to recruiters’ desks. That’s largely because these systems are searching for specific buzzwords, though some recruiters say that too many buzzwords can also be a mistake. Join us in a discussion with talent acquisition experts at Capital One. We’re sitting down with them to get their best resume advice to help you stand out in a crowded job market—so your resume helps you land an interview. We’ll also chat about how to ace those interviews once you’ve got them.
In this webinar, you’ll learn about:
Skills and experiences that recruiters look for in job candidates
Tips to tailor your resume so it stands out in a sea of applications
How to get noticed by recruiters on networking platforms
Expert insights on preparing for and acing your job interviews
