Recruiter Tip: Your 'Summary' section is prime real estate—stop wasting it on 'Hardworking professional seeking a challenge.' Tell me exactly what you’ve built and the $ or % impact it had. If I have to hunt for your wins, I’m already moving to the next profile. Candidates: what’s one win you’re proud of but haven't put on your resume yet?

I agree with this. I have seen so many summaries say nothing memorable. Specific results always stand out more than generic statements.

I want to know about those wins in each position, not in some "professional summary" that says "I achieved all these things" without telling me when, where, and how you achieved them. Otherwise, that professional summary will read to me as "trust me, bro, I achieved all these things."

Due to a recent company-wide increase and additional pay for bilingual direct reports I am only making a dollar and change above them as their supervisor.

Any suggestions on how this might be addressed?

Hello! I have a two part question: 1) is it worth it to obtain an SHRM specialty credential if I don’t have the broader SHRM certification? 2) has anyone gotten the People Analytics or Talent Acquistion credential? If so, how valuable was it from a learning perspective? Do you feel it significantly contributed to your knowledge in either area? Thank you!

Hi all!
Would love some insight on how you went from an HR assistant/coordinator to an HR Generalist. I’ve been in the HR world for 8 years, and only in the last 2-3 have I really done real HR work. The first company I was at didn’t have a solid HR team so I don’t really count that. I feel like I’m ready to take on more responsibility and learn more. And of course make more money.
