Ten Months Still No Job

SORRY to hear about your job search. The market is very tough and difficult. Ten months is a pretty long time and I know it can be frustrating. This compels me to ask what your job search methods are. How are you seeking your new position? I know there are some creative ways to job search.

I know you have excellent career achievements and credentials, so it makes me wonder how they showcase on your resume. Employers have cut cost and time when selecting potential candidates by building a keyword list. These keywords are designed to capture candidate’s resumes. The keywords are uploaded to a special search engine, i.e. Resumix . When a resume is submitted online it has to speak the same language as the employers preselected keywords. The more keywords you have better your chance of your resume making it to a human.

If you have been sending out the same document for 10 months, it is best to rewrite your resume. Sending the same material month after month will get boring and cause more frustration. This lets you know that something is missing. Rewrite your resume to target specific company’s desires.
