I’m going to apply for my first camera operator job soon. I have a demo reel, but I don’t know how to make my resume look appealing. Can I add unrelated work if some of the soft skills required are the same?

How unrelated is it? Had my boss telk me once not to put unrelated content but on your case it could be helpful since it shows some of the required skills. Maybe, go for it.

If it can be somehow tied in with the type of work you're applying for, then add it in. If it's completely unrelated and doesn't really tie in, then I'd say leave it off.

if you can show that they are related to the job, then go for it! I don't see why you can't put it in your resume. good luck

If you can pull it off and justify how it all relates to what you've added on, I don't see why not. Just don't steer too far away from the accuracy of the skills required.

Of course, you can. All you just need to do next is to relate those soft skills to the role you are applying for. Good luck!

Interviewed for a sr. PM last Thursday. Was scheduled for 30min but we went to an hour and had a really good conversation. The questions I got asked I was told the answers were perfect by the hiring manager. I felt really good coming out of it but then followed up with an email thanking them for the time the next day and I never received a response or next steps. Am I thinking too much into it or is it not a good sign?

Would anyone be willing to share their resume with me that includes their experience as a bdr? I’m currently looking for a new job and want to make sure mine will stand out! Any tips on which numbers and percentages to include and how I should word everything would be super helpful. Thanks!
