My resume is super targeted to sales, technical expertise in my industry/product I’ve sold, and has publicly available examples of the deals I’ve closed (some made headlines).

It’s more like hiring managers are always looking for the extra ‘skill’ that isn’t on a candidates resume - but might be on the competition’s. (“We went with a candidate that had this somewhat related skill, sorry”)

Sorry, we've moved forward with another candidate. They had experience in underwater basket weaving and you didn't, sorry 🥺
