HOW TO WRITE A RESUME TO SECURE AN INTERVIEW CALL

Do you remember the last ten companies you sent your resume to? Do you remember the exact name of the position you applied for? Do you remember if there was an answer from a company? Do you remember what you thought last time you checked your resume?

We are all looking for newer opportunities. Therefore, we send the resume whenever we see an opportunity. However, we often forget to follow up. We don't often maintain data about the applications. 

Do you really think sending a resume is enough to secure an interview call?

Another big problem is that candidates often don't see a job advertisement as a unique situation. They have a single version of the resume that they send to every company. Let's take a look at the situation and find out how we can best approach an advertisement.

Prepare the resume: In this phase, you create a resume with all the details about you, your vision, your degree, your work experience, etc. This resume acts as a basic framework and brings everything you have in one place.

Find the right job ads: We hope that at this point you know exactly what you want to do and that you have a good understanding of what this position or profile actually contains. Some companies often advertise on their own website instead of advertising on a job board. On the other hand, some companies outsource the recruitment process to other companies. When you think of a particular company, you need to find out their recruiting strategy and send your resume the same way. Otherwise, you can upload your resume to various online job boards and wait for potential employers to contact you. Most popular job boards often send you related job postings as they appear. All you need to do is find the right profile and company to apply.

Assessing a company as a recruiter: A company that offers great products in your domain may not be good enough to work for that company. So don't take a company at face value. Do some background studies to learn more about the company. You can visit various social networks to find current or former employees of the company and to get an insight into the company. The process may be too time-consuming to track. However, this homework not only helps you avoid unnecessary applications, it also saves a lot of time that you would have spent on the interview and preparing the interview.

Prepare the perfect CV: CV writing is always done. Once you've identified the right company, it's time to prepare the resume according to the requirements. For example, if you are looking for certain characteristics of the potential candidate, focus on them when creating the resume. Concentrate on your strength and show them how you can add value to your company. This will attract the interviewer and you can secure an interview call.
