Your resume has 30 seconds to either make you or break you. Most recruiters and prospective employers can determine your potential value in just one quick read of your resume. Sadly, more job opportunities are lost daily due to candidates' ineffective resumes, than lack of credentials. Even the most successful career history can appear weak if not marketed with optimal impact. The only way to compete in today's complex executive job market is to be prepared in advance. |

Scannable Resumes
Written by admin on October 10, 2010 – 8:22 am -With employers using the latest technology, savvy job seekers can keep pace with a scanable resume. To simplify the resume review process, employers often scan resumes into databases and “search” for the qualifications they need. An effective scan able resume is more than a simplified text version of your resume; a scannable version must contain the important keywords that ensure that your resume will produce a match.
