Finally!!!! Someone to tell me EXACTLY what to do! Invaluable to know exactly what a resume reader is looking for!
John, appreciate you man! You might like this one too...czcams.com/users/live2UnBrAw5O0Q?feature=share
This has really helped me out. I’m actually a prospective men’s college volleyball athlete and I have used many concepts in your videos to help me email college coaches. The 4 sentence cover letter is a great addition as well.
Glad it helped!
"Brilliant!" few who provide most valuable information so generous, engaging and comprehensive.
So glad you enjoyed it!
Very impressive Andrew, you hit so many key points to nailing an incredible resume, how to get it seen and through the ATS.... bravo!
Glad it helped!
Thank you so much 😊
You really helping the community
You’re welcome!!
Very helpful for those of us transitioning from a long held job, or exiting self-employed status to be an employee again. Thank you I took lots of notes!
You are welcome. My pleasure!!
Hi Andy! Much obliged for constantly sharing enlightening video clip!
You're welcome Bhavesh!
It's my pleasure, Andy! Have the flabbergasting week
Andy, please share the formula for summary of Customs, Logistics and Business Operations Manager with 28+ years of experience
Exactly. Tell the employer your story from the start so they don't have to painstakingly try to compile it themselves from numerous paragraphs of text down below. The career profile contextualizes YOU in the reader's mind, thereby shading the rest of their reading experience as they have your profile already in their mind.
We’ll said!
I had no clue how to write an effective resume. It probably explained why I got so little response from the one I wrote. Eventually I was contacted by a specialist who did recruitment offering a fee to spruce up my profile. I paid and saw small progress with job replies. Very happy with result.
So glad!
Thanks for you energy
You are so welcome
Thanks for sharing.
My pleasure!
Keep it up, Andrew!
Appreciate that Marei!
Best advice I’ve seen or heard. Thank you for saving me from shooting myself in the foot. 🤘🏽Do you have advice for career change?
There was a previous comment here which was spam. For you, I have entire career changer playlist on my CZcams channel!!
Thank you for your videos! You're a great asset to the jobseeker community! I'm a career changer, mainly due to recent medical limitations. And 48 yrs old. I am educated wth a BA in PoliSci and history from a top 10 public university (magna cum laude) and some grad school. I'd love to hear your tips on how to market myself given these parameters. Thanks.
Edit: Also, it took me a long time to get settled in my career because my wife was military, so I was pretty transient for the first 12 years of my resume (2 years here and there until redeployment time). So, it's a difficult bag altogether.
You're welcome and hang in there!
Think of your resume as a sales flyer; put the stuff you think makes you most marketable up top. Recruiters and hiring managers on average only spend five seconds looking at resumes, so you want to put something on top that will catch their attention.
True!
Thank you for such high quality advice. You know your stuff Andy! I'm concerned about employers' ATS not picking up key words. With that in mind, should my resume be uploaded to a website that I'm applying on in PDF or MS Word format?
I wouldn’t put it in an ATS, but if you insist, use word doc. 👊
@@andylacivita Thanks. I'm no fan of ATS, but some employers insist on it unless I have a direct connection with the recruiter before I apply for the job.
Thank you for this video. I am planning to quit my job for 9 years and apply for a new one, however, updating my resume seems to be Mission Impossible. Thank you.
You got this!
Hello Andy this is your fan in Doha watching you. My problem is I have work in different companies and have 23 years of experience . If I include my experiences in each company and put my achievements it will be long and my resume should be a marketing document not a list of what I did
Hi Andy, Took a 3 years break after about 11 years of engineering work-experience. How do i state this? Does this go into the last line of my career profile? "Returning to workforce following a 3 years sabbatical.."
Hi Andy, very useful video! I have been at the same company for 10 years, how far do I go back in my company history on my resume? Is it okay to just have one company on the resume?
The whole way and yes!
??? Your work in these videos provides exceptional value.
My question is, how would you address employment gaps in an interview, particularly due to health issues, and if that was a long (up to a year) gap?
Thank you
Thanks! Check my videos on employment gaps!
hi, andrew. thanks for the amazing video! im a fresh graduate and i already saw your college resume template. is it necessary to put 3 highlights into the college resume too? what is your thought about it? thank you very much
edit: im an architecture student and want to take a career as a sales, so i was thinking to put 3 highlights thats connected with a sales career (or maybe just highlight of education and work in general)
No need for highlights in collegiate resume. Just follow the template!
@@andylacivita thanks for the answer! i just reviewed my whole resume and fixed it up with mentioning sales experience in the career profile (bcs i didnt put it there before!)
also, do you have a video explaining how to make a cover letter for the college resume? ive downloaded the 4 sentence cover letter template, and actually added the 3 highlights because the cover letter said so. do you have any alternative to substitute that part?
thanks a lot!
This is helping me drill down to my problem. I'm 48. I've never had a management role. All my relevant experience is from freelancing. I've never worked at a big name company, and I've never impacted a company's bottom line in any big, meaningful way. Am I just screwed?
No one is ever "just screwed" James. Never!
@@andylacivita I love a lot of what you do. But people in this situation desperately need more direction. I know, I'm right there with him. What you are doing is aimed at people with a rich history specifically in business. Many of us don't have that and this market is tossing us into the crap heap. Some direction for those of us who simply "just worked" and need direction on getting a job that offers a living salary is desperately needed - and NOT being addressed by anyone.
@@RuthmarieHicks I have covered this endlessly in my free and paid videos. I realize it's difficult to watch everything I produce, but please don't assume I haven't covered it. If you want to start the very basic spot without a lot of work history, you can take my collegiate template and modify the profile in the collegiate sample for someone who is either junior in their profession or doesn't have a ton of major accomplishments.
Is it important to write a career profile if my work experience only consists of six years at a single job? I get the impression that a career profile is more appropriate for some with mutiple employers otherwise it looks like filler in my opinion. Thoughts?
Yes. 100%
