Remember that there are many reasons why someone would not get hired despite having top work experience.
I have seen people out of FAANGs with 10+ years of experience sharing their CV after being laid off and some will struggle to get any interview, let alone get a good job, just because the format of said CV was absolutely awful.
If you aren't getting interviews, it's your CV that is the problem.
- jonnycoder 4y agoCan you give some examples of bad format?
- bobleeswagger 4y agoAdding detail seems like a good idea, a CV is really communicating how well you can boil off the meaningless details and manage upwards. It's more sales than we are taught or intuitively realize. You are selling your time.
- aviditas 4y ago9/10 resumes I have been seeing are the default auto generated ones from LinkedIn. Sometimes those look alright but the rest are 5+ page monstrosities.
- wyclif 4y agoNot a resume expert, but one thing that I think is bad are the multiple page resumes. You should try as hard as you can to make it fit on one page. It's so much easier to get recruiters to read a one page resume.
- conductr 4y agoI wouldn’t call them for interview because I perceive them as out of my budget. Could be true or false depending on the individual but I think it’s also knowing if your Top experience also unintentionally conveys something else that’s turning people away. This is how bubbles pop and it’s likely the fallout will be reduced comp for many of you folks when you land somewhere.
