Help me to get a job as a 3D Artist
My probation was supposed to be of 6 months (i.e until June 2022), but today I received a notification in Workday that I have passed my probation.
How is this possible?
I was planning to resign within probation for 30days notice period. But now this happened. Will this change my notice period to 90days??

Hi Fishes, I have been offered by Cognizant Consulting to move to UK for a short term. However I have my permanent braces treatment going on in India. Can anyone guide if Cognizant Consulting (UK) covers dental treatment in insurance. Can anyone also let me know how much does braces treatment cost in London? Cognizant

I've heard of people hiring someone to work on their resume, but I never have and have been fine. I just try to find templates and examples online to help me create my own, it's really easy and a lot cheaper that way.
I haven't tried this, have just spoken with colleagues but I do think it's funny to get advice from peers who are in the same position that you are. Maybe a professional would be better!
I used an AI service on earnbetter.com .
Same and I’ve been able to land a couple first and second interviews. No new roles yet :/
Yes I have and I would highly recommend it OP. I hired someone from Upwork to write mine. I just looked for resume writers and then looked at their work and picked someone based on that. I really do think having my resume professionally optimized helped me so much.
I am currently unemployed and used TopResume to rewrite my resume.
I came across TopResume during a job search and they emailed me to show me how my resume was scoring in their ATS (automated tracking system). They told me I was underselling myself. So, I engaged them in their Career Evolution Resume Writing Package for $219.00.
The timeline to work with your writer on your resume is tight (about 7 days). So, if you do utilize TopResume services be cognizant of this. Also, you can only go back and forth with them 2-3 times to tweak the resume. I almost missed my window so thought the timeline was worth mentioning. In addition, when the writer completed my resume I asked him to throw it back through their ATS system to see how I score now, and he refused. He said my resume was optimized to pass ATS.
I have applied to 16 jobs online with my newly minted resume from TopResume and have received zero interest. About a third of those applications were denied outright/immediately. I reached out to the salesperson that I initially worked with for assistance over a week ago and I have received no response.
I've been unemployed for 6 weeks now. I would recommend getting your resume professionally written for the formatting, buzz words, and template BUT I would recommend you tweak your resume for EACH job application. Pack in buzz words, and the language used in their job posting. I'm trying this tactic starting this week.
Nope. Never needed too, Been in the working world
a very long time. I'd learned to modify my own resume to be more attractive to specific jobs.I doubt that works any longer, as nobodies resume will get to an actual hiring mgr until it gets thru algorithms, HR, etc.
Sadly it seems these days, it's become a "thing". IMHO, this is an "unnecessary" service, targets out of work folks who are desperate. I'm sure there's free services that likely do what these for profit orgs do.
And I wouldn't trust them. None will provide a written guarantee you get an interview.
You know what's in your resume, modify it to better fit a specific job. Getting a job has always been hard work. There's no magic "sauce" involved.
Just use your brain and a bit of creativity. But never, ever lie on any submitted resumes. Odds are you'll be caught and quickly terminated. I've seen this happen.
I haven't personally, but many people find it helpful. They often find resume writers through recommendations, LinkedIn, or professional services like Indeed or Fiverr. It's generally helpful for creating a polished, professional resume but in my opinion noone can do a better job than YOU
