I thought it goes without saying but yes, you do need to complete the entire application if you want to be considered for the job. I understand that the job application process can be tedious. Sometimes, you upload resumes and then type out what is in them on a different page or are asked to provide a cover letter outlining why you want the job. But, meeting the minimum requirements of filling out an application is the first indication to a potential employer that you are diligent and a candidate worthy of consideration. It's disappointing to sift through wonderful resumes attached to incomplete applications. Your resume alone will not earn you a consideration, and employers will not chase you down to complete your application. These are just some thoughts for all who may be applying for jobs right now.

📢 New Year, New Job? Let’s talk resumes. As the job market revs up again in January, it’s easy to feel the pressure to “stand out.” But let’s keep it real and remind everyone that padding your resume isn’t the answer. Instead of embellishing, focus on: 🔍 Highlighting transferable skills you’ve built. 🎯 Tailoring each resume to the role you’re applying for. 📚 Emphasizing your eagerness to learn and grow. Employers value authenticity, something I can confidently say firsthand. So, show them the real you because honesty opens doors that exaggeration can slam shut. https://bit.ly/3CVvsLU P.S. IPC is hiring multiple roles!

Job applications should only have 2 buttons: 1. Upload Resume 2. Submit Perhaps a few weed out questions to filter out unqualified candidates. That’s it. No one wants to waste 30 minutes filling out repetitive forms. Don’t ask applicants to retype everything that’s already on their resume. Making people jump through extra steps just shows inefficiency. Complex processes don’t attract better candidates—they push away great ones. ♻️ Repost to spread awareness to hiring companies

I recently had an interesting experience in my job search journey that I'm eager to share with all of you. After being approached by a recruiter for an opportunity that seemed well-aligned with my career, I promptly submitted my resume, filled with optimism about the potential ahead. However, the follow-up I received was nothing short of surprising. The recruiter pointed out that my resume did not "parse correctly" into their Candidate Management System. To move forward, they suggested I make my resume ATS-friendly and recommended a specific service for this purpose: https://lnkd.in/gh-CdWAe. Now, this is where things get intriguing. Throughout my career, I've applied to numerous positions and never encountered any significant issues with ATS systems parsing my resume. This recommendation to utilize a paid service to alter my resume raised an eyebrow. This leads me to wonder, is this an isolated incident, or is it becoming a trend within the recruitment process? Have any of you been advised to pay for your resume to be made ATS-friendly, particularly based on a recruiter's recommendation? 🤷♂️🤷♀️ #JobSearch #Recruitment #ATS #ProfessionalNetworking

5 most common mistakes I see candidates making when applying for jobs 👇🏼 🎂 Adding Date of Birth on the CV: this can lead to conscious/unconscious discrimination (even more if you are a woman) ❌ Applying for ANY role: you need to be picky and really understand what you want/love doing and go for it! Don't spread yourself too thin 👻 Not replying to the recruiter: we talk a lot about TA/recruiters ghosting candidates, but what about candidates ghosting TA/recruiters or not showing up to interviews? Remember, it's a small world. Don't ruin your reputation 🔥 Applying & swiping like it's Tinder: don't, please don't just apply without properly reading the JD and the screening questions 😰 Using an empty LinkedIn profile to apply for jobs: LinkedIn is now becoming your CV. Having an empty profile (especially when applying for Marketing or Sales roles) will not help Anything you would add? 🧐
