Why the content of your resume is so important
The content of a resume remains the number one selling point of the individual. Gone are the days when you could simply match a job description and get selected for an interview. These days, recruiters and employers want to see individualism and a real sense of purpose within the candidate’s application.
No matter what level of experience, a resume needs to demonstrate what they can bring to the employer in terms of skill sets, capability, and value add.
The competency-based framework
A competency-based framework is the strategy we use to build the framework of a Resume, CV and/or LinkedIn profile. In fact, clients typically achieve 8-12x greater interview success using this strategy.
Once we have identified those competencies, the next stage is to provide proven and demonstrated statements.
The best strategy is to use the STAR (situation, task, action, result) method to extract qualified statements. We need to transform bland and generic statements into powerful, qualified, and value-added information that will set you apart from the competition.

ATS 2.0 Systems
THE OLD WAYS ARE FINISHED!
ATS 2.0 is here, and it’s poised to transform the market. Resumes need to stay up to speed with these developments, as the old ways and methods of writing resumes to beat ATS systems may no longer be effective.
Choosing the right resume format
Choosing the right resume format is a key strategy and one we work closely with our clients on to ensure they gain maximum traction in the job market.
The 10 second rule!
With hundreds of CVs and resumes hitting a recruiter’s inbox for each job, it won’t surprise you to find out that over 90% of applications are rejected within the first 10 seconds of opening.
