Crafting a resume that increases your odds of landing in the ‘yes’ pile

If you’re looking to make a career move, the first hurdle you’ll likely face is getting your resume past the applicant tracking system. This webinar will offer tips on how to format your resume to boost the likelihood it will be seen by a human and get the consideration it deserves. The panel will discuss how to select keywords to use so that once your application makes it through any filters, it will impress the hiring manager. You will receive actionable advice, such as which tools to use to test your resume and how to get AI to work for you in your job search.
