One of the biggest resume mistakes I see is focusing solely on job duties. Yes, you should include relevant responsibilities, but you should frame them in a way that highlights your skills. And include achievements wherever possible. Quantify them if you can. A good way to frame them is "Achieved X by doing Y."

Actually, I gave Interview for BackEnd Developer @ Itilite. I was selected in the interview process (2 Tech DSA Based + HR) and got a mail stating that our interview panel is really impressed with your domain related expertise in order to proceed with offer negotiation please submit your documents. Now after 2-3 days of document submission, they came up by saying they cant move forward with my candidature.

I am still amazed how can they do this after asking my documents.

Is there any advantage to telling a company you are interested in working for in the future where you decided to accept an offer from? Or does it not matter? I accepted an offer a week ago with a great company (Company A) that for this season in my life seems like a great fit and only strengthens what I have to offer company B down the road. Company B just sent me a request for interview and I want to keep the door open with Company B but they were just very late in extending an interview.

Anyone else just sitting around waiting for the ax to drop? I'm a soon to be 2nd year corporate associate who has seen work completely dry up. My utilization held pretty steady around 50% immediately after shutdown, but August was below 15 billables with no appreciable work in the pipeline. Aside from letting people know I'm available and doing pro-bono/CLE, it's starting to feel like a serious "covidcation" leading to termination.

Resume length: one page or two?

It depends! If you're a recent grad or junior in your career, stick to one. Once you're a few years or jobs out, 1.5-2 pages is fine. Even if you're very senior, try to stick to two. Many hiring managers will not read beyond that, and your resume should be a highlight reel anyway. Note: these general rules apply to US-based professional positions. Other countries and industries (like acadamia) may follow different norms.

Today's tip: Your resume (and cover letter) should target the specific position. The easiest way to do this is to edit your professional summary and key skills sections (which should comprise the top third of your resume) to reflect the qualifications required or desired in the job posting. Be honest – only reference those skills you have!

Let's talk about keywords. Virtually all big companies use applicant tracking systems (ATS) to manage their job search process. Systems vary but many use keyword scanning to identify the most relevant resumes submitted based on the extent to which they reference keywords from the job posting. This means you should consider targeting your resume to each posting and definitely do so for top choice jobs. Keywords will tend to be hard skills found in the qualifications sections.

My husband is a Pre-Sales System engineer. He is looking for help rewriting his resume so he can leave his current company. Anyone have any recommendations for a resume writer specializing in IT engineering?

Starting us off with an important tip: Your resume is a marketing document, not an autobiography. It should include relevant jobs, responsibilities, and perhaps most importantly, achievements. Where you can quantify an accomplishment or just talk up a major project you led at work or in an internship, do so. The point is to make the hiring manager think, “Wow, I need to talk to this person! They seem like a good fit!”
