If you’re applying for jobs and not seeing any responses, here are a few reasons why that might be the case and what you can do about it.
I recently spoke to a woman who’d been applying for jobs and not getting any responses. I asked her to forward me a job description for a job she applied for, along with the resume and cover letter she submitted. As is the case 95% of the time, that was where her problem was., trust me – your documents need work. Here are a few reasons why you might not be getting a high response rate and what you can do about it.
On your resume: Use spaces between sections so people’s eyes can easily digest it. Bold and italics help with this, too. Put your title and organization on the left, and your dates and locations on the right, so it’s not one big string of words on one line. Use a simple format so it’s easy to figure out how the content is organized.
If you’re truly doing everything above and still not getting responses, this is probably where you’re hitting a wall.
