Hi all,

I’ve been applying to a ton of Account manager and CSM roles and have not been getting any traction with my resume. I do have 3 yoe in sales. Would anyone be able to critique my resume? I’ve cropped out the personal details at the top. looking for some guidance 🙏🏾

Remove the dates from your education. Recruiters are ageist and 100% make snap decisions based off of that alone

Tenure looks like you leave less than a year into each job. That's always a flag to me

This is very much a generational thing. Skipping stones up the ladder to make more money until you’re higher than you can be functional in role.

Eventually it bites you.

Great content! I’d try a different resume template though. Looks too similar to every other resume and it’s outdated. Microsoft word has some built in templates that look eye catching.

I agree! The LinkedIn resume builder is also an awesome template. Has worked wonders for me.

yea you are getting killed by being a job hopper. Whether self inflicted or not, I would pass over without knowing you just on the fact you don't complete 1 year in a role. You are part of the new gen though , so if you find someone hiring from your gen that is also a job hopper it might not be considered taboo.

Zero longevity in any of your previous careers. No hiring manager will care how good or talented you are if you leave just after you finish training and become independent in a role.

You should update resume to Toronto Metropolitan University. :) I would think that you should stay in this position or next for minimum 3 years as recruiters will feel that you didn’t learn any position within a year.

I’d say make the bullets more concise. Try keeping them to 1 line. I like the focus on numbers and accomplishments, maybe remove any “job description” bullets they’re redundant to any similar jobs. Everyone with a similar role has similar functions, not everyone has accomplished or participated in the projects you have. You also have enough experience to move your education to the bottom. Mostly, clean it up visually so it's easier to read. Good luck!

Make sure you put your “open to opportunities” on LinkedIn. There is an option to hide it from your employer if your still employed. I’m in an Account Management and I had an influx of probably 10+ messages the 2 days after posting I was available.

Your resume reads very well, the only thing that might be a problem is it looks like you are changing jobs too frequently.

Core competencies section can be removed.  If you’re looking for a job in sales that section is almost table steaks.

Hi fishes, my friend recently had a bitter experience with Dish Network. So her profile was shortlisted and they asked few questions over email. It did take good 2hrs to answer and she replied back. HM said we are good to go for interview and sent an invite. On the day of interview nobody turned up, neither they gave an update later. She did follow up for a couple of days but no response. Is there any reason why this happens ? Me being in HR field felt this to be a little unprofessional.
