I'm finally getting around to updating my resume. Do you guys still include a summary on yours?

A summary can still be helpful if it’s short, targeted, and clearly aligned with the role you’re applying for. Nowadays, resumes are given strong priority and really need to be well aligned with job descriptions and ATS systems to get noticed.
I personally updated my resume and applied to many jobs but kept getting either no response or “we decided to continue with other candidates.” That’s when I realized my resume needed improvement. I later connected with an application strategist who helped me restructure it to be more ATS-friendly and competitive. If helpful, you can reach out to him at shoraldmatter.resume.spec@gmail.com
Wishing you success with your job search.

Hello! Looking at an opportunity with established startup in UK that's just been acquired by a large co. I'm US based and my salary is around $250k (NYC) -I've been asked my expectation without the startup giving me a range to work from (though I've asked). I'm not sure how to reply to them because I have a feeling that my requirement may be out of their range and while I don't want to undercut my value, I also don't want to be cut out of the process because it's an interesting co. Any advice?

I’ve heard salaries have gone up quite a bit in the midst of the pandemic and I’m wondering if this is true for EAs as well. There’s a myriad of data online about EA salaries depending on age/experience but I’m interested in salaries from jobs accepted in 2020/2021 specifically!

Please feel free to share:

- Your length of experience

Thank you!
