Submitting your resume to multiple different job vacancies and not hearing back? This doesn’t mean your CV is ‘Bad’… Here’s what it might actually mean..🤔 👇 1) You’re submitting way too late, and the pipeline of candidates is already full 2) The company doesn’t have enough TA/Recruiting resources to respond fast enough 3) You were passed over for candidates with more experience, or better qualifications 4) The job vacancy you applied to is frozen 5) You’re not qualified for the jobWhy not get some feedback for free… Reach out to a recruitment professional who knows your industry and see how they can help.. You never know what kind of response you’ll get until you start asking! #recruiting #jobsearch #constructioncareers #constructionrecruitment #pegasussearch

    Drafting the perfect CV! 🗒️💻 Building an impressive CV (resume) does not only get you one step closer to your dream job, but also acts as an extension of yourself and whether you are the perfect candidate for the position you’re applying for. Adele Oosthuizen, our Human Resources Associate has shared a checklist of what recruiters and hiring managers look out for in your CVs 👇Pro tip: Candidates that send their CVs via email should include the job title they are applying for, in the subject line of the email. This will also give them a better chance of being seen and retained for future vacancies.

    How do I tailor my CV to every job?🔔 Start by thoroughly reading the job description. Identify key skills, qualifications, and specific responsibilities the employer is seeking. This forms the foundation for customizing your CV to align with their expectations.🔔Highlight relevant work experiences. Prioritize achievements and responsibilities that closely match the requirements of the job. Quantify your accomplishments when possible to showcase tangible results.🔔 Incorporate keywords from the job description naturally into your CV. You can use the Jobalytics extension on your browser. It automatically highlights relevant keywords and skills in the job description. This not only attracts the attention of human recruiters but also helps your CV pass through applicant tracking systems (ATS) by aligning with the criteria set by the software. 🔔 Lastly, your professional summary or objective should be clear and concise. It should highlight your unique skills and experiences that make you an ideal candidate for the role. #careeradvice #cvwriting #atsresume #jobhunt #jobsearch #CVTailoring #resumetips #jobapplicationtips

    Your CV/Resume should always be truthful and accurate. Use it to explain who you are, what you have done, what skills and knowledge you can offer and what your career goals are.In your work experience, start with your most recent and clearly list who you worked for, job title, for how long, what you did and your achievements. Focus on the most recent and relevant and shorten previous roles. Explain any gaps in employment.One CV/Resume will not fit all applications. It needs to be a very targeted document for the role you are applying for. Build a master CV/Resume but adjust it for each role you are applying for, focusing and expanding on what is most relevant..Regards,Your friendly Talent Acquisition Specialist

    I find proven technology talent for hiring managers that lack time but require great people, excellent service and good value

    Chronological CV’s are superior: That’s what my experience tells me!A candidate recently told me they have been advised to write a functional CV…my opinion was especially within the Engineering & IT space this was a big No!This is a few reasons why📅 Clear Career Progression: The chronological CV presents work experiences in reverse order, showcasing your career trajectory and growth. Hiring managers quickly grasp your professional journey, identifying skill development and progression. 🚀🌟🏢 Emphasises Stability: This format highlights job stability, making you appear reliable and committed to your profession. It instils confidence in employers looking for dedicated employees. 🏋️♂️💼🎯 ATS-Friendly: Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) prefer chronological CVs because of their linear structure. They are more likely to extract relevant information accurately compared to functional CVs. 🤖💼💯🔍 Easier Reference Checks: Chronological CVs simplify reference and background checks as they provide a clear timeline for verifying employment history and accomplishments. 📝👀I accept in some other professions it may be different but in our world of technology the Chronological is a clear winner 🥇

    Update your contact details and check them EVERY TIME you submit a job application.A great resume and brilliant letter of application don’t go very far when a recruiter or hiring manager can’t contact you because you haven’t updated your phone number or there is a typo in your email address.Your attention to detail starts here.#jobseeker #newjob #recruitment

    Candidatenoun : a person who applies for a jobTherein lies one of the most important reminders to anyone working within recruitment.Candidates are not:❌ A CV /covering letter❌ A fee to be collected post placement❌ A set of skills or qualificationsThey are...people.People who are looking for a new challenge.People who are hoping for a more flexible schedule.People who are taking a big leap of faith in the hope of something...more.They are people.So, shouldn't we stop calling them candidates?#Customer #Recruitment #Resourcing
