(917) 447-1815Recruiters initially read resumes in 6-15 seconds, depending on which study you read.
In today’s YouTube video, I answer the question, “What do recruiters look at first on your resume?”
I outline the 4 initial areas recruiters look at first in that 6-15 second time period.
You may think it’s impossible to assess all of the information I outline in the video in this short of a period of time.
I was a recruiter for 13 years. I will tell you when you get good at reading resumes (after reading hundreds a day for years), you can assess if someone should get a interview call or not, or whether to keep reading the resume or not, in this short time frame.
So in this short video, you will learn:
**The most common resume mistake job seekers make that stops most recruiters from reading further and puts your resume in the “don’t call” pile.
**Why functional resume formats don’t work and why recruiters hate them.
**How recruiters determine if you are good at your job — just by reading a document.
**What recruiters are looking for in the education section of your resume.
