A good resume is not going to get you a job, but a bad resume can prevent you from being hired. At the heart of your job search is networking. Networking, not with the goal to meet as many people as possible, but with the goal of making real connections with industry professionals and learning about their careers. Only 3% of job candidates have a referral, so you immediately become a more exclusive candidate if you have one. But once you do hand over that resume it needs to be excellent. It needs to engage the reader and keep them reading. Because according to CareerBuilder, 40% of hiring managers spend less than 60 seconds looking at your resume. By using the right keywords and making your resume visually appealing, you can extend that reading time and increase your chance of getting an interview.
